Help tracking down a death record?

I'm trying to track down the death record of an ancestor, Joannes Jodocus Breidenbach, and I'm having some trouble. He was baptized in 1682, and the only other record I have of him was his marriage to Anna Maria Frohmen in 1710. He has no known children. I found Anna Maria's death record while I was looking for his, and she was listed as his former wife. He is from Oesdorf, Westphalia, Germany, but a relative thinks he possibly died in Mittelstrimmig, Germany. I'm looking for help or advice on finding out what happened to him.

Queen Aerea advice?

I'm thinking about writing a fic where Aerea becomes queen and I'm looking for advice on which way I should take this. So far I have a few details planned but may change them later if I find something that fits better.

  1. Rhaena is involved in the death of Maegor and takes control of King's Landing.
  2. Aerea is either getting a hatchling or an egg hatches for her. (she can't fly off to Valyria if her dragon is too small to carry her)
  3. Rhaena and Elinor Costayne friendship.
  4. Adult Aerea actively takes part in canon wars like the Vulture King and Tarth.
  5. Possibly bitter Alysanne.
  6. Aerea's dragon comes from Dreamfyre's first clutch.
  7. Alysanne tries to have a say in how Aerea is raised.
  8. Possible Rhaena and Maegor dragon baby.
  9. Possible Aerea ruling Harrenhal before becoming Queen.

I have some details I need suggestions on.

  1. Should Rhaena remarry after Maegor? Who should she marry and for what reason?
  2. Should Rhaena become Queen herself or just rule as Regent for Aerea?
  3. Who should Aerea marry and for what reason?
  4. Should Rhaella marry or go to the Faith?
  5. What would the personality of an older Aerea be like?
  6. If Rhaena died earlier than she did in canon but before Aerea becomes of age, would Jaehaerys take the throne from Aerea? (I don't have this planned, just wondering)

I'm also looking for names and color schemes for Aerea's dragon.

Help reading a record?

Is it possible to have help with this record? It's smudged, but I'm trying to figure out who this record is for. I think it's for the aunt of one of my ancestors. She's supposed to have been baptized September 26, 1677, and her name is Anna Odilia Breidenbach. I'm hoping to figure out the parents and possibly godparents if it's the right record.

Looking for a death record

I'm looking for a death record for someone named Anna Elizabeth Thielen. She was married to Johann Bernard Breidenbach and died October 1759-1762. I think she died in Oesdorf, Westphalia, Germany, but I'm not sure.

How to read baptism records

How are baptism records from the 1700s supposed to be read? I'm having trouble telling the difference between who is getting baptised and who the witnesses are. As an example, is Anna Maria Elizabeth Breidenbach the witness or is Anna Catharina? And who is Anna Maria at the end?

The example I'm talking about is third from the bottom: https://data.matricula-online.eu/en/deutschland/paderborn/DE_EBAP_63113/KB004-04-T/?pg=66

Help reading a record

Can someone tell me if this is the baptism record of someone named Joannes Bernardus Breidenbach? His baptism was on July 14 1762, and his parents are Joannes Bernard Breidenbach and Anna/Maria Anna Schmidt. I think it's the third one from the top. I'm dyslexic and struggling to read the handwriting, so any help would be appreciated.

Looking for records of an ancestor

I'm building my family tree and my grandmother gave me our family heritage book, but I'm having trouble figuring out how I connect to distant cousins. From this book, I know who my earliest known ancestor is, but I'm having trouble finding records on where I go from there.

The ancestor in question is Johann Bernard Breidenbach, who was born in Oesdorf, Westphalia, Germany sometime in the 1700s. He died in Oesdorf on January 28, 1803. He married Anna Elizabeth Thielen on February 27, 1757. Her birth and death dates are unknown as well. They had a son named Johann Konrad Breidenbach in October 4, 1759.

Part of the trouble is that one of the distant cousins that I'm trying to connect to on the family tree claims that Johann Bernard Breidenbach was also her ancestor, christened May 9, 1724, but that he was married to Anna Katharina Schmidt on April 23, 1758 and their son Johannes Martin was born or baptized on September 2, 1774. He also died on January 28, 1803. He is also from Oesdorf.

I am aware that it is possible that there could be two Johann Bernard Breidenbachs in Oesdorf, Germany at the same time and that they could be cousins, it doesn't seem likely that both of them would have died on the same day.

An ancestor of mine who was also researching our family history had gotten these dates from the church records from Germany, but was unable to go farther back due to the records being difficult to read. She was also told that everyone with the last name Breidenbach at that time was related, I just don't know how. She suspects that there was only one Johann Bernard Breidenbach, but due to the age and condition of the old parish records, she thinks the second marriage date was copied incorrectly.

I'm looking for birth, death and marriage records for the people mentioned above so I can figure out who is who and how to connect them to my family tree. The church I mentioned is St. Johannes Catholic Church in Oesdorf, Westphalia, Germany.

I'm currently thinkig of writing a fic where Alicent and her kids time travel to a few years before the Ashford Tourney, and I'm looking on opinions on what details would fit best. I'm using a mix of book and show timeline for House of the Dragon, so the ages will be a little different. They disappear soon after the Driftmark incident (120 AC) and appear in 203 AC. Alicent is a good parent in this.

Ages for the time travelers: Alicent (22), Aegon (8), Visenya, an oc, (8), Helaena (7), Aemond (7), Daeron (6).

  1. Where should I have them appear?
  2. The dragons won't arrive with them, so how long should it be before they show up?
  3. For my oc, should her dragon be one of the canon dragons, or a wild one? What are some unique colors I could give a dragon if she claims a wild one?
  4. What would Daeron II do about any eggs laid by the dragons if they do lay any clutches?
  5. What would the Targaryens and their spouses think about Alicent and her kids?
  6. What kind of freedom would they be allowed?
  7. What would Daeron II do about Alicent and her kids?
  8. Would Aerion be a danger to the Targtowers?
  9. Should I write chapters from the HOTD characters in the past reacting to their disappearance?
  10. How should I have dragons die out after the Greens time travel? There technically wouldn't be a Dance since they aren't there to take part in the war.
  11. Visenya and Helaena would most likely be expected to marry into the family, but would they be expected to marry one of Daeron's grandsons or their own brothers?
  12. If a Rebellion broke out when the Targtowers were older, would they be expected to fight?
  13. I'm having Alicent marry Baelor, but should I give them any oc kids? If so, how many?
  14. Should I do the Ashford Tourney and Great Spring Sickness? Which characters should I give different fates?

Any opinions and advice will be appreciated. I'm not sure if I'm going to end up writing this fic, but I'm looking for ideas and inspiration.
