Adam Stahl's occupation as written is: Tapetendrucker = wallpaper printer.
It is hard to speculate what the relationship is between Adam Stahl in record 1449 and Konrad Groh in record 1448.

Also note that Adam and Konrad also "share" a witness on their respective declarations, namely Ferdinand Baptistella.

Yes, in 15+ years of genealogy research, this is the first time I've come across a wallpaper printer! Great indeed!
