Eva Catharina Weilbrenner and Jacob Weilbrenner

Eva Catharina Weilbrenner and Jacob Weilbrenner apparently married during the records gap. My best guess for Eva Catharina is the daughter of Maria Catharina Mueller and Georg Peter Weilbrenner born 19 Oct 1788 and christened in Freinsheim the same day. Is this identification is correct, it means that Eva Catharina's husband was definitely not her brother Johann Jacob born 1784. This leaves two main contenders: the son of Maria Catharina Reck and Johann Georg Weilbrenner born 20 Oct 1777 and christened in Freinsheim 21 Oct 1777, and the son of Susanna Charlotta Seltzer and Georg Peter Weilbrenner born 15 Jul 1788 and christened in Freinsheim 16 Jul 1788.

Eva Catharina and Jacob had at least six children christened in Freinsheim, although three died young:

Eva Catharina died and was buried in Freinsheim 26 Jan 1848.
