Asking assistance--Schmidt puzzle
In reference to previous translation requests and much confusion there has been--I seek you advice --I will provide previous info--A marriage record had Johanettes name crossed off and Anna Margarethe as the one being married.
All searches for Children of Anna Margetha came up with mother as Johanette. I could find no marriage record for Johanette to Heinrich Wilhelm Wallbruch yet this was the couple on all the baptisms of the children--example
I searched extensively to confirm there wasn't a duplicate Heinrich Wilhelm Wallbruch. I finally found this: Bottom record gives her name Anna Margarethe Schmidt -no parent name provided (death records of parents provided father died in 1841 and mother in 1826)
Therefore she died before the sister Johanette married Wallbruch in 1842 and I think the minister crossed off Johanette's name and wrote Anna Margarethe name. (he was confused as father and a daughter -Schmidt died a few months before--or for whatever reason he wrote the wrong information.) This has been a very tedious search process. I feel this is the answer I needed. Please translate this death record -might provide some kind of verification. Please provide your opinion. Thank you thank you thank you. I must say I got goosebumps when I finally saw this record. Also Anna Margarethe's birth is 27 Nov 1824--does the math work to tie this together?

Translation of the death record:
Name of the deceased: Schmidt, Anna Margaretha
Residence of the deceased: Greifenstein
Age: 16 years, 2 months and 26 days
Whether spouse or children are surviving: --
Date and time of death: 23 February 1841, 5 a.m.
Illness: nervous fever (= Typhoic fever)
Clergyman who was informed about the death: the same (Schaum)
Date of burial: 26 February
Churchyard: the same (Greifenstein)
Comment: From the date of death and the age I calculate as birthdate 27 Nov 1824 which agrees with the date given on her baptism record.

I am greatly relieved---I kept feeling the marriage record had to be incorrectly recorded.
