Notes

The surname's capital is a looped letter the clerk also uses for V; "Voigt" is the best reading, a Thiele- or Treyl-type reading not excluded: POSSIBLE. That he is the groom of 1766 (same forenames, same parish, a widower twelve years later): POSSIBLE; a child of Christian Voigts: THEORY. Grade: STATED (date, office, bride); the surname POSSIBLE.
