Robert, does the word servant back then mean what it does today. I assume she babysat, made food cleaned clothing, took care of the household chores etc. Right?
Thank you for your beautiful work!!!KG

You're welcome, Kent.
Christina Scholl's occupation in this record is "Dienstmagd" which translates as: servant girl, servant, maid. I think you named a number of the chores she would be required to do in a given household, though I am not sure about babysitting.
The following article about household servants from the German Wikipedia may provide additional information on the duties and responsibilities of maids and servants: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dienstbote

Robert Seal_1 Last night before I went to bed I posted at 10:30 and got up at 5 to see what happened over night.
Ulrich send me a message asking what time zone I was in and said he thinks I do FH 24/7. I had a good laugh about that one.
