 | Birth record of Matthäus Wurm
Mathäus Wurm was born on 29 Dec 1834 in Bleidenrod. The record indicates that the godfather is Mathäus Wurm, father's brother. It is also mentioned that the godfather was absent because he was a soldier and thus his brother Johannes acted for him during the baptism and also signed the birth/baptism record. |
