Here it is. This is the close up. of just the document. It is for a Friederich Schafer Baptism Place of Ladenburg, Mannheim, Baden, Deutschland Birth date 24 July 1850. It also indicates that he had a sister Elizabeth baptized the same day and gives the parents as Friederich Schafer and Maria Kenz. It may not be the correct Frederick, and although the date was shown on the indexed information as the birth date I thought perhaps it was really a Baptism date. Remember, I know nothing about Fredericks' parents or siblings. And at this time it was and has been the only thing I have found close to his birth year, and since we now think it was 1847, it may not be anything at all connected: AJ
