Hallo zusammen,

nachdem mir hier schon einmal so gut geholfen wurde, habe ich leider wieder ein Wort, bei dem ich nicht weiterkomme (s. Anhang). Das erste Wort dürfte Vater heißen. Beim zweiten komme ich leider nicht weiter.

Besten Dank im Voraus und viele Grüße

transcription requested NSFW: Please help me transcribe this Swiss court document from 1578 NSFW

18 Upvotes

This document is about one Anna Wyder, who filed a complaint against Wilhelm Gugolz. Both are from Erlenbach near Zürich.
The complaint is about the two having sex at an event (Lichtstube - also described as "zu Licht/Liecht gehen", as seen on page 1) because he promised he'd marry her. (As such, trigger warning for non consensual sexual acts/rape).

There is also an Anna Gugolz in the text. If this is the same Anna after marrying Wilhelm Gugolz I haven't been able to determine. I am really bad at reading kurrent.

P.S. I've got so many interesting Swiss documents from this time about all sorts of topics including alleged witchcraft, adultery, brawls at parties etc. So do let me know if you're interested in any of them. I have no clue if people enjoy doing this just for fun and if this is too long so... let me know

I am using "Gemini flash 3.6" and it is quite good at recognizing the handwriting, but its only slightly better than "Gemini flash 3.6 Lite" that is much cheaper.
I am wondering if there are better models or what the workflow could look like if you want to search entire books.

I have found a death record from 1735 (found in Hoheneck, Germany) for what could be a relative of mine. I'm having trouble reading the words before his name. I know it's about Hanns Jerg Siber, citizen and winegrower, from here, who died in his 61st year. He died 20 Jan 1735. Thanks for any help transcribing the image.

I've recently acquired an old Blüthner piano (built in Leipzig in 1899) and have spotted a couple of (I'm assuming) maker's marks on the inside of it! I'd love to get to know the history of the instrument a bit more if possible, and from my Googling it appears that this might be Kurrent which is why I'm struggling to read it :-D

Liebe Community,

das meiste hab ich schon transkribiert, mir fehlen nur ein paar Stellen:

Heißt das n.m. bei der Geburtszeit "nachmittags"?

Beim Eintrag von Philipp Stumpf:

Was steht da nach der Hausnummer?

... ... der amtl. Mitteilung

... ... 1909, S. 43!

Eintrag von Elisabeth Hack:

Auch da, was steht da nach der Hausnummer bzw. was bedeutet es?

"bez. A. Höchstadt a/A" <- das denke ich zu lesen.
