Richard,

I believe the words after "SchneiderMeister" are "zu Heiligkreuzsteinach", therefore he possibly was a master tailor from Heiligkreuzsteinach (a German place name).
The same place name is given for Johannes Herbig in the first line of the sheet (in old German: Heiligcreutzsteinach).
In the case of Adam Killenberger, the place name seems to be appreviated. Only the H for "Heilig" (in English: holy) and only a drawn cross for "kreuz/creutz" (in English: cross), only "steinach" is fully written.

Juergen
