Barbara’s death record:
The German transcription :

Fr. Barbara   Pfarrwittwe zü Rappertshaüßen ist
Mohringin,    den 30 . Nobris [ 1703 ] Christehrlich begraben worden.

The English translation :

Mrs Barbara   Pastor’s widow of Rappershausen [ in the Duchy of Saxe-Römhild ] was
Mohring,         on 30 Nov[ember 1703]. given a Christian and honorable burial.

Christehrlich = Christlich und ehrlich = “Christian and honorable” — yes, Christ is the German word for “Christian”.  Christus is the German title for Jesus of Nazareth.  It’s because of the Latin influence and it’s very strong in both the German language and culture, especially with one half of Germany in the Catholic Church.  We may say “Pope Francis” but the Germans do NOT call him “Papst Franz”.  They call him “Papst Franziskus” — Pope Franciscus in English.  But, unlike their Dutch brethren, they don’t use the Latin names for all the Popes.  For them, the Popes are Franziskus, Benedikt XVI ( not Benediktus ), Johannes Paul II ( not Johannes Paulus ), Johannes Paul I, Paul VI ( not Paulus ), Johannes XVIII, Pius XII . . . but St Peter is still Hl. Petrus.

Johann (son of Thomæ, Christoph and Hartmann, Catharina) was born before 9 Apr 1631 in Hildburghausen, Hildburghausen, Thüringen, Germany; died on 27 Jan 1690 in Rappershausen, Rhon-Grabfeld, Bayern, Germany; was buried after 27 Jan 1690 in Rappershausen, Rhon-Grabfeld, Bayern, Germany.

His mother was living with him after his father died in 1690 and until his mother’s death in 1703. She was buried in Hildburghausen.

The German transcription of Johann Tobias Mohring’s baptismal record is not finished but it’s already clear that he was baptized by his father, the Reverend Johann Anton Mohring, with three godfathers — the Reverend Tobias Durrfeld, the Pastor ( 1660 – 1668 ) of Nordheim im Grabfeld ( now Nordheim vor der Rhön, 11.6 miles northwest of Rappershausen and 24.2 miles west of Hildburghausen ), the Reverend Kilian Seifert, the Pastor of Bedheim ( for 38 years, 1638 – 1676, 4.2 miles southwest of Hildburghausen ), and the Reverend Johann Langenstätter, the Rector of the Evangelical School of Zerbst ( 121.5 miles northeast of Hildburghausen ).

I stayed up all night reading about these esteemed men.  The two Pastors both have biographies at Google Books.  Rev. Seifert is in the Krauss and Thomä books but he’s also in a book about German Evangelical hymnals because, for his last illness, he had songs sung to him from his church’s hymnals.  But you may be much more interested in Rev. Langenstätter.  It’s not because, in 1668, he published a memorial about his late Lord and Master, Johannes VI, the Sovereign Prince of Anhalt-Zerbst ( the great grandfather of Catherine the Great, the Empress of Russia, and the great-great grandfather of King George III, who lost the American Colonies ).  It’s because he was one of your Klippers.  He was the son of Anna Nothnagel and her husband Pankratius Langenstätter, the grandson of Christoph Nothnagel and his wife Afra Klipper, and the great grandson of Conrad Klipper, the shoemaker of Hildburghausen.
