    [1768 Januarius] den 16. N. den 17, Bapt. [born 16. and baptised 17.01.1768]

    Hans Caspar

    M(eister) Heinrich Bär, Schuhmacher zu Ottenbach / Catharina Bär

    Caspar Bär von Ottenbach / Margaretha Bär von Ottenbach

    The column heading "fähle" has been discussed on Lesehilfe Spaltenüberschrift Todesursachen: it shows up in both baptismal and burial entries and seems to have been used with the meaning of "comments".

    https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag Apparently the Bär family were teachers!. When we visited Ottenbach we quietly went into the school offices to take photos of the Ottenbach school photos that were on the walls. There was a small meeting going on at the time so we tried to be unobtrusive. Got some good photos. When you visit a place you have a much better picture of what these records mean and where they took place. In my minds eye I can see Heinrich Bär standing in front of the Ottenbach kids. Having taught elementary school for 41 years also helps.

    Thanks for everything you do. You amaze me! Kent
