Hello Kent,

Translation:

Number 20. Tuesday, on the 9th of November [1723] were legitimately married together Johann Nicolaus Fischer, an unmarried shepherd, surviving legitimately-conceived son of the late Hanß Martin Fischer, former lordly shepherd in "Linckhenheimb" [Linkenheim], and with him Maria Elisabetha Rauschin, surviving legitimately-conceived daughter of the late Jacob Rausch, former citizen here. They had a wedding sermon, celebratory pomp, and string music.

Pomp, sermon and string. Nice. These two were separate sponsors of Georg Scholl and I figured out that they married. A shepherd is an unusual profession. However my Grandfather was a shepherd for a time in Idaho when he was young. Thanks Robert! KG
