Struggling with translation of old German handwritten script

jsziebert

The first record in August 1665 refers to Johan? Droschler and his marriage. I cannot make out the name of the bride or the first name of the groom. All help will be appreciated. Joyce

I see the following:

Den 9ten huius ist Herr Droschler zum Rückers mit Jungfrau[?] Gerdruta Henlin viduus Hans Henl daselbsten eheliche Tochter ...

On the 9th of this month [were married' Herr Droschler from Rückers with the unmarried Gerdruta Henl[in], legitimate daughter of the widower[?] Hans Henl ...

The -in suffix is a feminine suffix to the daughter's surname.

Note that the capital H in the word Herr is written the same as the first letter of the Hanl surname.

I read this as follows:

den 9t huius ist Henn Droschler zum Rückers mit Jungfer Gerdruta Henlin __? Hans Henl daselbsten eheliche Tochter und sindt christlicher Weis zur Kirchen undt Straßen gangen undt haben ihren ehren Tag solennicinat, welches wirdt bezeicht.

Translation:

On the 9th of this month [August 1665] Henn Droschler zum Rückers went to church and street in christian manner with maiden Gerdruta Henl, legitimate daughter of __? Hans Henl here, and have celebrated their great [wedding] day which is testified.

Note: Henn is in some regions a short form of Johann

Thank you both for help reading and translating this marriage record

Is the word before Hans Henl possibly "witwe" (widower)?
