Translation Request Johannes Schmitt
Please help me understand what is stated in this death/burial record. It is from the parish of Rimbach, Heppenheim. It is for a Johannes Schmitt who died 21 Jan 1719. I believe the record is stating that he died between 11 and 12 and that he was buried on 22 January. I also think it states that he was 62 years of age. I am not sure what the first few words state other than he was a citizen, but I am not sure what village it might be stating. Thank you for your help!
