Hi everyone, this is my first time posting here. Hope someone is able to help ☺️

I’m researching my family history more and recently found a couple of documents about them, specifically this birth registry and a military enlistment (at least that’s what I understand).

I can understand some words and the names of course, but this type of cursive handwriting is difficult for me. Can someone read this and write it for me, please?
Thanks!!

  2. This is a question for r/Kurrent

    This is old German handwriting and there are not many who can read this. You find the experts in the other sub.

  3. It‘s a bit difficult due to the size of the picture and seeing more of the writer’s handwriting would also help. But I try:

    Nr. 1391 Den siebenundzwanzigsten April 1875

    Ein Knabe, Johannes Heinrich

    Ehelich geboren am einundzwanzigsten April, Morgens 3 Uhr

    Ort der Geburt ?straße Nr. 4

    Vater August Joseph Diele

    Dessen Alter 37 Jahre

    Dessen Gewerbe und Wohnort ??

    Mutter Caroline Juliane geb. Markhoff

    Deren Alter 34 Jahre

    Deren Gewerbe und Wohnort -missing-

    Geburtshelferin Klusmann

    Angezeigt durch den Vater A. Diele

    Getauft den 5. September durch Pastor Frickhöffler

  4. Second page i can’t read well. On the left page some injuries are mentioned and in the line above i read Brasil and the fact there is a diagonal line across his name could mean he passed early (or when the priest was still working and put it in the church books at a later point)

  5. No. 134
