(In the past, the wording was a little different from today. I try to take this into account.)
Translation:
In the year 1891 on october 12th at 9 o'clock in the morning, came to me, Dominiques Cloos, mayor of Koerich, Canton Capellen, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg,
Andreas Brücher - 37 years; worker of a farm; resident in Goeblingen.
He showed me a child of female gender and explained,
that his wife Catherine Seyler - 38 years - without profession; resident in Goeblingen -, has given birth of a child yesterday 11 o’clock in the morning in Goeblingen, and which shall have the name Catherine now.
This explanation was in the presence of the witnesses: Johann Klein - 37 years; teacher; and Michael Rieß - 33 years; landlord; both resident in Goeblingen.
I have read this document to the father and the witnesses. After that they have signed this document with me.
