I think I could have done this myself but I like the professional touch, the "signed Sealed and delivered" touch! Thanks KG

You're welcome, MrG!
FYI: Do you recall that at one point I thought those odd numbers in the margins might have been references to the times when the persons were buried. Well, now looking at these on this page, I think these actually might be donations/payments for the funerals. For example, in the record you marked, the cost might be: 1 Thaler : 20 Pfennig = 1 Thaler and 20 Pfennig.

Robert Seal_1 Yes I remember you telling me that. If this is the case it is a pretty big discovery. It is written like you would write money and doesn't look like a date. Let's keep our eyes on this. The pator in Graben at this time was Andreas Weber who served from 1719-1737. This may be his way of keeping track of expenses! KG
He began doing this in 1726
Look at entry 294

Hi @Kent Gardiner,
Yes, someone paid dearly for the funeral in entry 294.
The larger monetary unit was probably Thaler or Gulden rather than Mark. The smaller unit was probably Pfennig.
Very interesting indeed!
