Good evening Kent,

Translation:

On the 8th of December [1764], in the morning early after 8? o'clock died and on the 9th [of December 1764] was buried: Christina Margaretha Munckin, surviving legitimate unmarried daughter of the late Wendel Munck, former citizen here, at the age of 26 years, and 6 days 10 months, and 8 days.

Comment: Given the strike-outs for the name and the age, the pastor must have been confusing Margaretha for a young woman named Christina.

Kent Gardiner

The pastor confused Margaretha Munck 1738-1764 with her younger sister Christina Munck 1740-1743. Thanks Robert, KG

You're welcome, Kent. And thanks for the explanation about the Munck sisters.
