Birth Record of Maria Zehler
1839 - Wadern, Rhine Provice, Prussia
Maria Zehler's birth record shows that her father [Peter Zehler] appeared before the Burgermeister at Wadren on the fifteenth of the month of May [Vom fünfzehnten des Monats Mai] and that she was born on the fourteenth of May [geboren den vierzehnten Mai]. This is in contrast to Maria's baptismal record at the Church in Lockweiler, which records her date of birth as the fifteenth of May [Mai decima quinta nata].
