Johannes Koller bap 1660 entry 106 image 1794 1651-1708 "Bieber church records" |
Translation by Robert Seal:
This is the baptismal record for Margretha Köller, who was named after her baptismal sponsor Margretha Süntzel.
Translation:
106. Johannes Köller, at Bieber, baptized a little daughter; Margaretha, daughter of Baltzer Süntzel at Gaßen, [served as baptismal sponsor], and [the child] was named after her, on the 19th of September in the year 1660.
My comments: The name "Baltzer" is a variant of "Balthasar".

Your question: Is it possible Johannes is from Lanzingen?
Answer: The answer is yes based on the following article about Lanzingen from the German Wikipedia: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanzingen
Go to section 2.2, Historische Namensformen: you will see three historical forms of the name of this place, and the middle name "Landtzingensesse" is close to the form written in the record as "Lantzengesäß". So I agree with you that Johannes Koller is from the place which eventually is called Lanzingen.
1690 Catharina Lorenz Koller is also from "Lantzengesäß" or Lanzingen: Could Catharina be Johannes's sister?
