Birth Record

Birth Record of Peter Zehler
1833 - Wadern, Rhine Province, Prussia



Peter Zehler's birth record shows that his father [Peter Zöhler] appeared before the Burgermeister at Wadren on the first of the month of August [Vom ersten des Monats August] and that he was born on the thirty-first of July [geboren den ein und dreisigsten Juli].  This is in contrast to Peter's baptismal record at the Church in Lockweiler, which records his date of birth as the first of August [1ma August].  As explained in the text, this same discrepancy occurs with several of his siblings.
