Attached please find the e-mail I received from Manfred:
Hallo Sonja G.,

Wanted to send the missing parts of the translatin for Richard Jackson who
posted in genforum and you translated parts of it. His given e-mail adress seems
to be wrong since below e-mail was returned. I used catholica@columbus.rr.com
Perhaps you can pass on the info so he has it completed.

Mit freundlichen Gruessen

Manfred



Hallo Richard Jackson,

Since I'm not a registered member at genforum I email you directly. Here is the
complete translation inclusive the parts Sonja couldn't read

Translation is as follows:
------------------------------------------------------
6te / Adam Kellerberger Bürg. Einwohner / 29 Jahr / d. 8te
Febr./ u. Schneider-Meister zu H + Steinach / 7 Tage / dito
------------------------------------------------------
now what it means:

Adam Kellerberg died with the age of 29 years and 7 days on 6th of February 1746
he was burried on 8th of February
his profession was tailor master

the document has 4 columns.
- very left is the day of the month
- next follows description of person about
- next follows age as years/months/days
- right is the date of burrial

The name of the location can be identifies as H +(=cross)Steinach. if you look up
the entrys above you can see that one time it is fully written and not in short
form.

Wrote the german translation exactly as it is on your doc so you can compare. If
you want oters to get a link on the result you will have to place a folloup with
this info by your own since I don't have access to genforum.

Mit freundlichen Gruessen

Manfred

P.S.: look at http://www.heiligkreuzsteinach.de/

to get a view on the church where the burrial ceremony happened and the market
place that Adam will have walked along once upon a time . Use the link
"Postkarten"
on the left side to get some more pictures of the location
