Is anyone familar with late 18th century frakturs? I have been fortunate enough to have come across one from one of my first generation ancestors. While this is not in my direct line of ancestors, it is in the Gettysburg Weibel/Wibles line connected with the family of Stephen Weibel B1775.
This particular fraktur is the classic heart shaped German baptismal certificate in script German with red inscriptions. It was printed in Ephrata PA and the baptism was conducted by a Pastor Schroder in Adams County in 1798.
It is exciting to view such a document after 210 years and see confirmation of a piece of our geneological research on this family.
Would appreciate hearing for Weibel/Wible researchers on this.
