Help reading mother's surname

[kim.young]

For the first child recorded born and baptized on this page, Anne Christine Deist (born 20 Feb 1764), I can read her father's name, Conrad Deist. I'm not sure about her mother's surname. It could be Leonhard, Lernhard, or if an old style B, Bernhard.

Could I have some help determining this surname, please?

Thank you in advance!

Are you sure regarding the family name / father's name?
Did you already find the marriage record of this couple?

I do not have the marriage record for this couple yet. I haven't looked for it yet. However, the surname Deist is in the parish and I have seen it before. Do you have another suggestion?

So yes, confirmed > family name / father's name > Deist

You're right.


But..... the bride's / mother's family name is not Leonhard according to this marriage record, but instead > Herwig
Place of residence of the groom's father is: Schwarzenhasel A[mt] Rotenburg

Is Elisabetha's father's name Leonhard Herwig? I think I night see a comma after Elisabetha's name, possibly indicating her father's name follows.

Is Elisabetha's father's name Leonhard Herwig?

Yes.

Both names are common male given names, as well as known family names.

So maybe something is mixed up here, which requires further verification, i.e. by the death record of Elisabetha's father (she's his surviving daughter when she got married), or by Elisabetha's birth/baptism record.

Death 18 March 1753, Johann George, surviving son of Leonhard Herwig (due to common practice in church registers the family name is underlined)

How is Johann George Herwig related to Elisabetha?

 

[vnagel2004]

How is Johann George Herwig related to Elisabetha?

He's either her brother or (also possible) her half-brother (the latter only holds true with: identical father, but different mother - that can only be determined i.e. by finding the birth/baptism records of these two children of Leonhard Herwig.

You are amazing! Thank you for all of your help and guiding me through the process of confirming Elisabetha's full name.
