Just as the previous individual that had a hard-to-decipher script, I too
have an old document that is difficult to completely decipher.
Though I was told the names, and I can find those written, it's the
remainder of the entry that has me puzzled.
The entire document is a page with 6 entries from the church of Gurske
(near Thorn). The one of interest - the baptism, in November 1748. of my
probable 4xGreat Grandfather, Andreas Krampitz, - is written with such
flourish and embellishment, that it makes extracting the words difficult
I was told the parents names are Martin Krampitz & Maria Zobelin, and
they are obvious & easy to read - it's the rest that isn't.
The document is at: http://imageshack.com/a/img538/3202/pAzVJv.jpg
and, I *believe* it is the lower right of 6.
(there is another apparent Krampitz in the upper left)
If needed, I can send you the document (first time user of
Imageshack.com,
so hope it's there & usable)
I would much appreciate other eyes that can read and describe all that
is written on Andreas' entry.

Also, I have a document of my 4xGreat Grandfather, Andreas, present at
the wedding of his "eldest son", Jacob, in 1794. If this baptism of
Andreas
is of the same Andreas, I still need who he married and when and their
children to tie down the linage. So, if you know of a Marriage (to whom
& when),
and/or births thereof (including his eldest, Jacob) of an Andreas
Krampitz,
(marriage ~1768-1774, children births thereafter)
- This would help demolish one of my brick walls.
