ID of a baptism sponsor 1845
I cannot make out the words following the sponsor name Daniel Knopf in this 1845 baptism record from Pempersin/Sittnow. Would someone please help?

Hello @Robt_Nielsen,
Daniel Knopf is a "Wirtschafts Inspector", typically spelled as one word: Wirtschaftsinspektor.
This translates as economic/business inspector. This is akin to an estate or farm administrator or business manager or overseer of a large farm/estate.
Might I suggest you google the word Wirtschaftsinspektor and read some of the hits you get to get a feeling for the nature of the job.

THAT IS REALLY INTERESTING, because I remember you helped me with that occupation once before. I just could not make out the letters in this record.
Four years earlier, the baptism record for an older brother in this same family listed a sponsor by the name of Johann KNOPF, who was also a Wirtschaftinspektor. The mother of the two children was Julianna KNOPF. The older brother's name was "Johann Daniel". Now I'm wondering whether the baptismal sponsor for the older son was the same individual as that for the younger son, with perhaps a full name of Johann Daniel Knopf.
You've given me another angle to research. Thanks!
