Translation Request - Baptism Record for Johann Georg
Please help me translate the baptism record for Johann Georg in February 1742 on page 2. I think his last name is Goller, but not sure. Also this record does not appear to have the mothers name listed.

Hello @jahofmann,
The child, Johann Georg, is the son of Michael Gredel and his wife Ottilia.
Translation:
19 February 1742.
Johann Georg.
I baptized a male named Johann Georg from the spouses Michael Gredel and Ottilia, whose godfather was Johann Georg Büttel.
[signed] P? [pastor?/preacher?] Otto Kaupert
"Ordinis Praed'm" [Ordinis Praedicatorum] = Order of Preachers (i.e., the Dominican Order).My comment: I'm interpeting that unusual letter before Otto Kaupert's name as a capital "P". The same capital letter appears in the abbreviated word "Praed'm".

Here is the baptism record you are looking for:
You can often find baptism/marriage death indexes books (often sections of books) on Matricula. Scroll on down to page 2 on the Hirschaid list and you will see them. I just looked at the taufen index book for that time period, went to the section with last name starting with G. It's organized by date and it was easy to find Johann George Goller listed under 1770 with the note that the record is on page 42 of that Taufen book. Then just open the taufen book that includes 1770 and go to page 42.
