That's a quick one: all transcribed on EDB

NOTE: In your blog you write "Margaretha Glätler Jillian von Haǔptikon". This would be Glättlin (female for Glättli) - but was an error and crossed out - corrected with Jllin.

NOTE: At the time writers often, especially with the first letter of a word or name, didn't distinguish between J and I - similar to V and U (which we see much more often). The correct spelling today would be Illi.

https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag I wondered and wondered about Glätler, thanks for the clarification. Good to know about the V and U as well s the J and I.

This finishes off this generation. I spent a lot of time looking at BVs for Margaretha with no results. Without some great breakthrough I don't think it is possible to find Margaretha's birth.

Thanks, hope all is well with you! KG
