Please can anyone help me ,by deciphering an early 19th century birth record, of my great great grandfather. I have a very bad photocopy, and can only make out his date of birth 28/1/1826 and his, and his fathers name. Philipp and Johan Jacob. If only one or two words could be identified, it would be a big help, as I can't even make out one to check in my English/German dictionary.I have a scan which I can send through. Many thanks Sheila.
