It is Nameu. But I have never heard this word. No idea what that is. But the first letter clearly is a "N". Regards, Thierry   Dr. Thierry P.

It's the ending that's causing the problem. It looks like it's talking 'name received got' (it received the name). I have seen this phrase in baptismal records but alway as "Namen". Is it possible that the printer just got it wrong?

Thanks all I am assuming there was a spelling error and the word is actually Namen. The suggestion of the meaning being "reputation" was a good one. I had thought maybe the town was suffering from a bad "shock" over the news but I think "reputation" is the proper interpretation. JK pascalfl wrote: > It's the ending that's causing the problem.

Umm, well clearly and German Gothic text in reference to the capital letters "R" and "N" are words that should never be used together. lol. However, it is an N and not an R as the good doctor says. The first letter of the next paragraph is an "R". Oh no wait, that's a "K". A trained eye might think it is a clear difference. ;') Brian
