Here's the translation of the first record -
Greifenstein, 27 October - Johannes Neuhard's little son Johann Christophel died and was buried on the 29th. Age - 20 days.
The second record, for a death in Edingen on 16 December is Johannes Neuhauß. There are no Neuhardts in the second image.

I have got to recognize the difference in these names. What is the secret to it?
Thank you again

Here is Neuhard - notice the little line above the u? That's a mark to distinguish it from an n. These two letters are formed in exactly the same manner, so that line is needed to distinguish one from the other. In the surname Neuhard, there is only one u, so only one of those little lines. Also, there is a d at the end of the name (or sometimes a dt).
Now here is Neuhauß - notice that there are two of those little lines over two u's. This name ends with ß not d.
So the first 5 letters of both names are the same, it's the last two (or three) that you need to watch out for.
