Good morning! I recently got hold of some church records from Canton Bern, Switzerland that probably hold a wealth of information about my family, but I'm having trouble deciphering. I would appreciate it if somebody could give me a hand. The records are from Habkern.
My maternal great-great-grandmother was born in Switzerland, and I'm trying to track her paternal and maternal lines. I have attached the baptismal record for her father, Ulrich Zimmerman. It looks to me as though he was born 11 Oct 1834 and baptized 26 Oct 1834. Parents look to me like Ulrich Zimmerman and ? Daubalder, married 14 Oct 1830. Am I on the right track? Can anyone piece together the rest of the text?
Also attached is the marriage record for Ulrich Zimmerman and Anna Brunner. Beyond that, I can't make out much.
Thank you for taking a look!
