    Unable to find any kind of Date or anything in English to tell me what this document is. Almost look as though it could be a Marriage Certificate or Some type of Religious paper. this was rolled up in a box full of dust and other printed material. measures about 16-1/2 x 13-1/2 inches. thick cloth like paper. Any Help with this is greatly Appreciated. Like what type of document it is?? how old it is??? and who signed in on the Bottom.???

      getthatmonkeyoutofme, ok thank you, I believe it is a German Birth certificate. The first word at the top Geburts= Birth.
    3. getthatmonkeyoutofme getthatmonkeyoutofme, 8 years ago
      I have an translation for you....
      just the part in the center
      line in line

      These both spouts,
      as: david b. Leifzer and his wife
      maria a born trautmann

      day in junius in the year of god 1864
      this child is born in jordan taunschig county, in the state
      northumberland in north america, and is baptized
      by father J. Freizinger
      and has been named emmy elisabeth
      on the 19th august 1864
      the godfathers has been
      benjamin und elisabeth leitzer
    4. getthatmonkeyoutofme getthatmonkeyoutofme, 8 years ago
      therefore it is an north american birth and baptism certificate
      from pensylvannia in german language

      pennsylvanien in north america, and is baptized

      You're welcome Mike. The Art Museum has a great collection of them and so does the library: https://libwww.freelibrary.org/fraktur/tour.cfm
