(Sunday) 4. Jun(ij) [1615]

E(ltern): Hans Sÿdler, Cathrin Kleinerin

K(ind): Hans Heinrich

Z(eugen): Hans Heini Grob, C(a)thrina Coggwÿlerin(?), Hans Steiners frouw

I'm lost with the godmother's surname - no such name in the Register of Swiss Surnames, no fitting marriage with a Hans Steiner in EDB. It could be that she was not from the region and got married outside canton Zürich - so the pastor was not familiar with the name and misspelled it - potential candidates could be Doggwiler, Roggwiler, Toggwiler - none of them with citizenships in canton ZH.

https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag Thanks, that is interesting about the godmother's surname. It must be very unusual to find names not in the Register. Maybe someone from out of the country. I appreciate all you do!
