Translation Request - Marriage Record
Please translate this marriage record from the Duchroth church book. I think it is a marriage between Johann Adam Hofmann and Anna Catharina on 20 Aug 1765.

Hello @Peter Treichel,
Translation:
On the 20th of August Johann Adam, legitimate son of Master Willhelm Hofmann, with Anna Catharina, legitimate unmarried daughter of the community member Michael Teschen of "Holtzbach" [Holzbach] in the administrative district of Simmern in the Electoral Palatinate were married and blessed in the name of God after three proclamations.
My comment: Here is the link for Holzbach from Meyers Gazetteer: https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/10834036

Thank you. It is not clear to me who is resident in Holzbach. Do you think that refers to Johann Adam or Anna Catharina?

I have taken a stab at a transcription. I have the following.
Den 20ten Aug. ist Joh[ann] Adam, des M[ei]st[e]r Willhelm Hofmanns ehel[iche]n Sohn mit Anna Catharina des Gemeindmann? Michael Teschen zu Holtzbach Chur Pfältzisch [Kurpfälzisch] Ober Ambt Simmern … and then I run out of gas. I think that there is a mixture of German and Latin in the last sentence?

It's Anna Catharina's father who is definitely from Holtzbach.
