29 Dec 1816 (not 1817 !)

Rudolf Jenta von Etenhausen, Pfarrei Wezikon, Margaretha Huber von Langnau, sesshaft [living] in Törlen.

So this record gives the same date as the record in Wetzikon (where the marriage had been reported) - contradicting the date (06 Jan 1817) in the Haushaltrodel and Familienregister. This has been discussed already on:

https://community.familysearch.org/discussion/comment/554059#Comment_554059

I had published this also on https://www.geneal-forum.com/phpbb/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=33897#p126991, suggesting a potential reason for the discrepancy - which doesn't really convince me - so I am hoping for better explanations.

Whatever the explanation might be: we have the original records (29 Dec 1816), which I consider more trustworthy than registers compiled at a later stage, i.e. with an additional potential source of error.

Beautiful. Thanks.
