I am not sure if I am reading the bolded letters correctly in the 1710 baptismal record from Malterdingen, Baden and how to interpret them. The mother's maiden name is given as Neßbaüer but I read it as Nußbaüer, and no matches for either version of this name comes up in Geogen. Any suggestions welcome:

    20 Apr 1710 was Easter Sunday, so the abbreviation under the date is probably F.[esta] Pasch.[alia].

    I agree that the father is ein armer Mann, his wife is Barbara Nußbäumin. This is the female version, the proper family name is Nußbaum.

    I can't quite make out the name of the place. It's probably a place ending in -i(e)ngen, there are many of those in this region.

    I dug into the place name a bit. The place is Thiengen. https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/20953091

    The parents marriage record is there:

    @Ulrich Neitzel, @JohnsonGreg: Thanks both! Fantastic that you were able to identify the location and confirmatory record from there — I had resigned myself to that being a brickwall and now you have allowed me to push back yet another generation!
