Translation - Marriage record for Johann Baumann and Margaret Elisabeth Merhoff
This is German church record from New Orleans, Louisiana. The groom is Johann Baumann and the bride is Margaret Elisabeth Merhoff. The were married July 14, 1860 by a Justice of the Peace. In the first column is there any other information as to maybe their parents or hometown in Germany or Switzerland? Also, could you please give me a guess on the last column which are witnesses? Thank you.

I imagine they all knew where, and it wasn't a hard requirement. Laws are "Guidelines," you know.
