I have a marriage record from Herrenwies in 1753 that has me puzzled. >From the record: "fuerant Joannes Georgeus Zinck filia Michaelis Zinck aeconomi in Weiblesbroch, & Maria Magdalena Herzogin filia Joannis Michaelis Herzog Lignatori in Hundsbach." I am puzzled by the words "fuerant" and "aeconomi" and the location "Weiblesbroch". I don't find either word in my Cassell's, or Thodes's German/English Genealogical Dictionary. And a google of Weiblesbroch, goes nowhere, even on google.de. Any ideas? Christopher Barttels Dayton, WA

I am puzzled to. I would propose it means (the married couple) were Johann Georg Zinck, son of Michael Zinck, ? bookkeeper in Weiblesbroch & Maria Magdalena Herzog, daughter of Johann Michael Herzog, woodworker in Hundsbach. The word filia after J G Zinck should probably be filius to agree with the masculine party and the word aeconomi whatever it means should probably be aeconomus. But unless you need exact precision this will get to the gist of the record.
