Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Can Anyone Identify the Town, Village, or City in this Old German text?

Hey Dave and Justin,

I see Wennebostel although I agree that spelling of it is weird. Looks like records for that area 1795-1852 are missing or haven't yet been digitized so I think I'm at a dead end at this point.

Thanks for this Justin. Looking at the document again last night I came to the same conclusion regarding the two places you've indicated. I wasn't able to get the "Amts" or "Muhlherr" parts though. Anything else on there you can read would be appreciated. Thanks again for all of your assistance in this.

Heinrich married Dorothea Cammann as Mr. Oelker's source had indicated.

Hi Karen,

The document is a marriage record for Johann's Son Heinrich Friedrich, and yes, I am a descendant of him. :)

Wow! That would be a shock. I'd be very interested in seeing if this is the same person whom I seek.

The "Golter" in the document I have is definitely ending with "-mann" though. Not sure if that means anything or ....

Johann Gehrke's wife was Catherine Dorothee Goltermann (or something along those lines). I don't have any information on either of them other than this place of residence, which you guys are so graciously helping me out with, and a birth date for a Son, Heinrich Friedrich, who was born in about 1817. I'm hoping that Heinrich's place of birth is the same place. All of this is coming from the marriage record for Heinrich that I found, dated 1841. I'm guessing that Johann was born in the late 1790's but that is 100% a guess. Thank you so much for all of your assistance here you guys. :)

Hi Dave,

I don't see a "D" in the word. The only other clue I can offer is an attempt to show the place where this person's wife came from on the off chance that they are from the same general area, wherever that is. I had to cut and paste the word prior to scanning it as it started at the end of one line and ended at the start of another line in the original document. (I apologize for the quality of the image. My computer skills are VERY limited.)

Thanks for this Dave. That's certainly a possibility. It looks to me that there is another letter present after the "ss" or, "z" in the case of the other two words. Worth a check though.

Hi Catherine,

All of the German marriage records that I have been able to locate in Germany (Celle Region) to date show the Bride and Groom's parents as well as where the bride and groom are from. Do you know the specific District, etc where this union was registered? I'm not currently subscribed to Archion, but you can see what records have been digitized and are available online for the various regions without charge from their site. I will likely be subscribing to it again in the near future once my research progresses. If you have more information, then a search would be possible.
