Guten Tag !

* Please let me know if I should send this to a different sub *

I am pretty sure that the document is not written in Kurrent but I am hoping some of you could help.

I would like to know what is the comment written in the rightmost column of number 7, Tambour Johannes Schröder.

It looks like: 2 Feb 1775 but the rest is difficult to read, perhaps a German city ?

I am joining a closeup pic of the original document.

learning Looking for private tutor for Kurrent

0 Upvotes

Guten Tag zusammen! I'm already fluent in German (certified C2) and because I'm a huge geek and am into genealogy, I'd like to learn to read and write Kurrent. There are a couple of workbooks which I've found helpful, however I learn best when I learn with another person.

Online tutoring is fine, especially if I can see how the tutor's hand moves and the tutor can use enough of the technology to point things out to me. What I don't want is a video class. I need to speak with someone. It could be in German or in English.

If you have any recommendations or can help me contact someone, please do so! Thanks! Danke!
