Kent: That's the problem with translation, particularly with terms from the past: how to find the appropriate corresponding word in English for hochfürstlich? DeepL gives "princely", Google Translate gives "high princely". Generally speaking, hochfürstlich means something connected to high nobility, usually a ruling sovereign, a Fürst. The ruler in Baden was a Markgraf, a margrave, and people/functions connected to his court had apparently the designation hochfürstlich.
So Gabriel Geibel most probably had a function with the court or the administration of the margraviate of Baden-Durlach; maybe he hunted the game for the table of the margrave?

Ulrich: Nice long life. In his daughter's marriage record he is a "local princely hunter "Hfrr" Gabriel Geibel." Now at 69 he is a senior hunter for many years. It makes one wonder how you make a profession of hunting in and round Graben. Does the term princely hunter mean he is good at his job or does it mean he hunted for a Prince or Nobility?
Beautiful work as always, Ulrich.

Ulrich: Thanks for the answer regarding "local princely hunter." Not sure if this is the right Margrave but I did find this:
Charles Frederick (22 November 1728 – 10 June 1811[1]) was Margrave, Elector and later Grand Duke of Baden (initially only Margrave of Baden-Durlach) from 1738 until his death.
