@Ulrich Neitzel The mother Charitas Gardoll did not marry Johann Balthasar Klumm until 1788, can you speculate on why Franz might have been christened with the surname Klumm? This is a gap of 8 years !

The baptism record does not mention the surname Klumm... Maybe he got the name first with the marriage of his mother?

Apologies! I looked up the record because I knew the date and names and when I found it I didn't realise there was no surname recorded. That makes complete sense.
Thank you
