Can you decipher this 1723 marriage location?
I believe these are my 5th great grandparents: Wilhelmus Te[r]sche and Anna Catharina Müller (top of left page). Here's what I see:
[Banns] 7, 14 und 21 Marty [1723] Wilhelmus Tersche, Fredericus Tersche aufin Crohennberg(?) Ehl: Sohn, und Anna Catharina Müller (or Möller), Engeln Müller (or Möller) zu Schaberg Ehl: Tochter. - Wilhelmus Tersche, legitimate son of Fridericus Tersche from Crohnenberg(?) and Anna Catharina Möller, legitimate daughter of Engel Möller of Schaberg.
I have found Schaberg in Solingen/Höhscheid but cannot locate Crohennberg(?) anywhere. Can you help? Schaberg = https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schaberg_(Solingen)

Hello @Gary Knecht,
Here is the link for Cronenberg (note spelling) from Meyers Gazetteer: https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/10304048
Cronenberg is approximately 3 miles northeast of Solingen, and on the map associated with the Meyers entry it is spelled: Kronenberg.
See this Wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cronenberg,_Wuppertal

This looks good, but there is an extra letter in the handwritten version.
Thanks, @Robert Seal_1 very much.

You're welcome, Gary. If you are referring to the "h" -- spelling changed over time and in some cases, the silent "h" was dropped from German words.
