A 1695 marriage record (attached) in the church book of Königsbach an der Weinstraße in Rheinland-Pfalz mentions the town of origin of the groom, and someone has written it as "Ecklandt, Hirssen". Can anyone tell me where that is?
"Ecklandt, Hirssen" is obviously not the town of origin. Unfortunately I can't decipher Hirssen, but that is the town. Ecklandt, the current spelling is Eckland, is a ground surface. "auß das Eckland zu ???" means: from the angled ground of ???
