Good afternoon Kent,

Translation:

On the 26th of April [1799] at night at 1:00 am [born] and on the same day baptized: Elisabeth [Zimmermann].

Father: Christoph Zimmermann, member of the [judicial] court, censor?, and year's mayor.

Mother: Eva Catharina, née Seegerin.

Baptismal witnesses: (1) Adam Wendel Cammerer, citizen. (2) His wife Margaretha, née Süssin. (3) Elisabetha, née Schollin, surviving widow of the late Peter Wenz, the former citizen.

Comment: If I have interpreted the father's second occupation correctly as "censor", this not only means censor as we know it, but it could also be interpreted as: reviewer, arbitrator, and even judge.

Fantastic! Added to pages for Adam Wendel Cammerer, and Peter Wenz. Thanks Robert, master translator! KG
