English translation

Entry 6: Johann Friedrich Schlözer, citizen and [co-resident] master glazier here [doubtful], only surviving son of the late citizen and master glazier Johann Michael Schlözer here, single, with Anna Barbara Vortmann [doubtful], daughter of a citizen and master [miller] [doubtful]; banns 27 August, the 11th Sunday after Trinity, 1797.

Notes. Collateral Schlötzer households; kinship to Blasius Schlötzer THEORY only. The glazier of entry 6 is the father of the children of 1812–1815 (212084 Bild 88; 212123 Bild 55, 61). The Weißenstadt Joh. Adam Schlözer and the "Hamm…" Johann Adam Schlötzer of 1806 as one man: POSSIBLE at most. Image to save: spread p. 270–271 (right page, entries 5 and 6).
