Hello,

Is anyone able to make out the names of record 26 of this church record: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSVN-45C?i=16&cat=1567865

Thanks!

Not sure to be honest. Strange that father's name is almost identical to that of the witness. My initial thought was that both should be Niemann, but the end-D seems to be present.

name: Herrmann Friedrich
parents: Johann Heinrich Niemand & Maria Klare Lünebrink
date of birth & baptism: born 14 April 1842, baptized 22 May 1842
witnesses: Herrmann Friederich Niemann
county and place of birth: Sandusky

Thank you for the transcription. This only confirms that I am lousy at reading old German script. I thought one of the names was Sandwisch.
