Comment Joop:

The maiden name of Elsbeth was Tobler and her late husband was Johannes Fuster; One of the witnesses to this marriage was her son from the first marriage Johannes Fuster, "und übrigen beijderseitigen Kindern" means "and all other remaining children on both sides", which would indicate that Christian Shwartz was a widower and he had children too; It seems like all English oriented names/months/statements are in blockletters
