Marriage entry, 1830, no. 3, pp. 22 to 23 (Bild 42 bottom of the right page; Bild 43 top of the left page; the running header of Bild 43 reads "1830. April. Mag. Junius"). Entry 2 above it was married "Dom. Septuagesimae (war der 7ten Febr. d. J.)", so entry 3 follows that date:

"3. Johann Georg Knoll, Metzgergeselle und Herberger dahier, des David Christian Knoll, Schneidergeselle u. Mieth[einwohner] dahier, einziger Sohn, wurde mit Barbara Engatin, des Johann Engat, Bürgers u. Schneidermeisters dahier, ältesten Tochter, nach dreimaliger Proclamation am Palmsonntag, d. 4ten April, von Herrn Pfarr-Vicar Karl Wirth aus [Oberröslau?] ([in der Kranken-?]) in hiesiger Kirche getraut."
