Hi Kent, I don't see Georg Scholl in this record, but it is nevertheless quite entertaining because of the note in the margin 😄. BTW: Happy New Year to you!

Happy New Year to you!!! Here is the funny thing about this record. I didn't fully research Maria Catharina Kammerer. I thought she died at birth. I was totally wrong. So I just added this beautiful translation to her web page. Pretty crazy huh. The bit about the treasure digger is very funny too. Thanks for all you do. I hope this is the best year ever for you.
