Transcript and translation

Uncertain readings are marked [?] or set in brackets; words that could not be read are marked as such. Each transcript is shown as written, with its transcriber’s notes.

Transcription (German, as read)

"3. Johann Adam Uh[l], Zimmergesell, des [weil.?] Wilh. Uh[l], K[önigl.] Fr[...] Untervogt[?] bei Frankenstein [doubtful], [Fürstenthum Bayreuth: doubtful], mittl. Sohn, mit Margar. Kunig. Knoll, der Ehel. ältesten Tochter des David Knoll, Einw. dah., nach 3mal. Procl. den 18. Febr. in der hies. Kirche."

[Doubtful: the father's title and place. The groom's surname is written "Uh" with a looped stroke; read Uh[l]. A crop of 26 October read the bride's father as "des Christian David Knoll, Einw[ohner] dahier" and the father's place as "[Unterdorf? / Erkersreuth?]"; the re-check reads "des David Knoll".]

English translation

No. 3. Johann Adam Uhl, journeyman carpenter, middle son of the [late?] Wilhelm Uhl, royal [...] under-bailiff [?] near Frankenstein [doubtful], with Margaretha Kunigunda Knoll, the eldest lawful daughter of David Knoll, resident here, after three proclamations, on 18 February in the church here.

Notes. Johann Adam Uhl is the "alleged father" of Eva Barbara Henrietta (born 22 May 1820; same name, trade and place, same mother and grandfather): PROBABLE. The bride is PROBABLY the Margaretha Kunigunda baptized on 10 June 1791. "Einwohner" (resident, not citizen) fits a journeyman. F62's "no Knoll groom except Johann Georg in 1822–1859" is not touched (this is a bride, 1821). Image to save: Bild 206, left page, no. 3.
