    "At Eschbourg and Graufthal, district of Saverne,
    the fifth day of Vendemaire month, year nine of the French
    Republic [27 Sep 1800], at eight o'clock of Jacob Laubacher, five and twenty
    years, four months and seven and twenty days old, born in Graufthal
    the second of April seventeen hundred and five and seventy, legitimate
    unmarried son of Jacob Laubacher, resident and occupied as a day laborer
    in Graufthal, Saverne district, Lower Rhine Department, and
    his wife Salomea Kor, who is dead. And of Ursula
    Schmitter, whose birth record cannot be found, born in
    Rosteig, where she is a resident, it is sworn by some citizens and the
    mayor of Rosteig that she is eight and twenty years old,
    unmarried legitimate daughter of Frantz Schmitter, resident
    of Rosteig, Lower Rhine Department, and his wife Ursula
    Lernhard, who has died. Both the testimony to her birth is registered
    in the marriage book, as well as his birth certificate, and to my
    knowledge all is correct and official with the forms, and there
    is no reason to disallow the marriage. Present was Jacob Laubacher,
    and Ursula Schmitter, along with Ludwig Laubacher, two
    and thirty years old, resident and occupied as a farmer in Eschbourg,
    the older brother of the groom; and Georg Laubacher, one and thirty
    years old, resident and occupied as a farmer in Eschbourg, an older
    brother, and Frantz Zorn, six and forty years old, resident and
    occupied as a schoolmaster in Eschbourg, and Frantz Host, nine and
    twenty years old, resident and occupied as shoemaker in Graufthal,
    with the parties to the marriage, all of Lower Rhine
    Department.
