This page of records is actually one of the better ones from that time period/priest. Thank you for the effort!

If you send me your transkript and ask for a few specific words to decifer, I could try if I can help you. But I cannot do more than focussing on some specific words due to my very limited time. I have family with small kids and my job is quite time consuming. My hobby genealogy is kind of on hold for a couple of months already. I just work on some lists whenever I got a couple of minutes time. Regards, Thierry   Dr. Thierry P.
