Can someone tell me what this word is, please? I believe it is a village/city name from a parish register from the 1730s. Based on the fourth image, this may be a place in Saar Alban. Thanks!

    I read: Tencherhof(f). The "hof" would indicate this is likely an estate, manor, or farmstead.

    While I couldn't find this in Meyers Gazetteer, I did find some examples online.

    If you google the words "Tencherhof" or "Tencherhoff" you will get some examples online which indicate the following:

    Tencherhof, Sarralbe, Moselle, Lorraine, France

    where "Sarralbe" is the French equivalent of the German "Saaralben" (Saar Alben).

    Here is the link for Saaralben from Meyers Gazetteer: https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/20660032
