Hello @Don Harlacher,
I see this is your first post in the German community so welcome!
Translation:
On the 28th of October [1692] Leonhard Horlacher, several and 80 years old, local weaver and resident, Catholic religion, was buried with a funeral sermon.
My comments: "several and 80 years old" = 80 and several years old, or more simply put 80+ years old.
I have not come across the phrase "pontific. relig." previously in my research but assume it refers to the Catholic religion.

Many thanks. I see that some people have put "Answered" after their request has been completed. How does one do that?

You're welcome, @Don Harlacher.
You posted your request as a "New Discussion" rather than as a question. This is understandable as the default at the Germany Research community homepage is "New Discussion".
Here's how to post your request as a question:
At the Germany Research community homepage scroll down to the heading "Discussions".
To the right of the heading "Discussions" you will see a blue box with the words "New Discussion" and a downward pointing arrow.
Click on the arrow to open the drop-down menu.
Select "Ask a Question", then post your request.
Once your request is answered, the system will give you the option to accept the response. If you are satsified with the response, then you should accept it. The system will automatically mark your question as Answered with a check-mark.
Best regards, Robert Seal_1
