Thanks for the extra work on Ancestry Robert. Here is what I know:

Note: Margaretha Barbara Wenz was born 10 December 1756 to Jo Martin Wenz (1724-1795) and Eva Catharina Grünemeir (1728-1795) She was one of eleven children. Together Margaretha and Martin had six children all named Köhler of course. These twins were their last two children. Margaretha's FH ID: LZVH-83T

Note: Johann Simon Wenz was born to Johann Christoph Wenz and Anna Maria Heilmann 6 Aug 1760. He married Eva Catharina Lind and his second marriage was to Marie Catharina Brecht 5 Mar 1803. FH ID: G9DS-364

Great translation, must have taken quite a while with all the sponsors and two children. Thank you very much. KG
