Burial Translation
Would someone be able to look over my translation? I'm pretty sure that's the right cause of death, but not 100%. When time is written down as 1/2 4 abend - should I add or subtract half an hour? My instinct is to subtract, but I think this might be wrong. Note - I'm not 100% sure her surname is written as Beisswenger, might be Beisswanger or something similar. I used the current spelling of the surname, but know the spelling might not match the record. Appreciate your help.

You've done everything right with your translation. The deceased's surname written here is Beisswenger. Cause of death is Lungenentzündung, which can be translated either as inflammation of the lungs or pneumonia. 1/2 4 translates to 3:30.
