Hello Trish,
Translation of the first death record:
Greiffenstein, on the 27th of December [1813] at 1:00 am, Susanna Maria, née Kling, surviving widow of Johannes Wallbruch, died from a complete consumption, and was buried on the 30th of the same month. Age: 73 years less one month.
Comment: Cause of death in German is "einer völligen Zehrung" which I translated as: a complete consumption. This perhaps refers to tuberculosis.
Translation of the second record:
Greiffenstein, on the 25th of March [1812] between 5 am and 6 am the shepherd Jacob Wallbruch's little daughter Christine Philippine died from a malignant/virulent cough, and was buried on the 27th of the same month. Age: 8 months and 1 day.
Comment: The infant probably died from whooping cough.
