Mr. Jacob Ludwig Ha__, innkeeper at the sign of the stag and council member. and F. W. Raicher, barber and currently mayor.

Comment: S.T. = sine titulo (without title) is in fact a title for people who are so venerable that it is impossible to list all the titles...

Kent, for me the most important step is the transcription of the (German) text which I do on a (digital) notepad on my screen. Once i have a full understanding of the meaning I do the translation, sometimes assisted by DeepL (however that always requires a finetuning).

Ulrich Neitzel Beautiful work!!! Thanks so very much. I am curious how you translate this much text? Robert says he writes everything down longhand and then types it into the Community comment page. What is your procedure for translating? Translating must take quite a bit of your and because your care and precision are so amazing. All the very best to you. Kent
