    Hello @Sheryl Sullivan Sharp Wildoner

    The line over the "oe" indicates that the name is abbreviated:

    Joes = Joannes (Latin) = Johann or Johannes (German).

    Thank you! I thought of that but didn't expect to see it immediately after "Catharina"

    Thanks again.

    You're welcome, @Sheryl Sullivan Sharp Wildoner.

    The little bit I can see of this record Catharina is being identified as Johann's wife.
