13-Pluv-y.7 (01-Feb-1799) - Johan Peter WIEDRICH
- Date of document: 13th of Pluvi?se
- This volume is in German and it is very difficult to read.
  There are no clear markings between individual birth records.
  The record for Johan Peter WIEDRICH begins near the bottom
  of image 4 (of 7) and continues at the top of image 5.
- The record begins with these words:
  "Heute den dreizehnten tag monat pluvi?se im siebenten jahr der frantzern republic..."
  which translates to:
  "Today the thirteenth day of the month Pluvi?se in the seventh year of the French Republic"
- Other key facts from this document:
  - Name of father: Jacob Wiedrich
  - Name of mother: Magtalana
  - Name of child: Johan Peter
- I cannot make out the birth date of the child.
  Near the very end are these words:
  "...an dem tag in dem Monat und Jahr..."
  This translates to:
  "on the day of the month and year".
  I expect somewhere near here it says something like
  "born yesterday",
  but I cannot make it out.

- Son of Jacques KUHN (age 22) and Eve Catherine Neuhard (age 23)
