This is a guess, but I think they are Latin abbreviations.
The last column on the right appears to be age at death
Ann. is an abbreviation for anni (and its different forms) meaning years
What looks like Mend. is probably related to Menses , meaning months
Hor. is an abbreviation for Horas, meaning hours
This is my "best guess", not actual knowledge.

That makes sense. Thank you so much. I was trying to find info in German. They are Catholic church records and make sense that it would be in Latin back then. I have only been actively researching in Germany for a month. This information will make a big difference in my word search. I really appreciate your insight and time to respond.

As a general rule, all Catholic records around the world until the middle of the 20th century are in Latin, not the local language.
