Framed 1771 Pre USA Fraktur Birth Certificate Pennsylvania Large Otto(?) German

Description

Up for sale is a beautifully Framed Fraktur Birth Certificate art from 1771. It has very noticeable rips, holes(missing chunks), darkning,dimming, creases but honestly doesn't take away much from the piece. It has been professional matted and framed in frame that definitely adds to the piece(Plus 0 frame). There is slight issues from the transportation of the frame from showing at an exhibit. The county is Northhampton, PA in Allen Township. Writing is beautiful in it with a full small parts missing most likely due to no exact times. I did my best to translate the piece and show all damage on frame(little paint chipping and whatnot) and piece. Please ask questions on this and I will allow PU or can meet you in Metro Detroit Area. Museum quality framing. I believe it is Johann Heinrich Otto but without any signature I am unsure(matches up nicely though). Very morbid poem at the bottom as well hah. Please compare for yourself and if you have further insight I would love it! Feel free to offer. I will send more photos if interested(12 max in here).
Roughly 28.5 x 25.5
Cert is Roughly 17 x 13

Mithin diese in den Gnadenbund Gottes einverleibet, und von ....Herrn Jung, Prediger und Diener des Worts Gottes
tes den ten Tag getauft und genennetworden, wie oben gemeldt. Taufzeugen waren Konrad (?) und seine Frau Regina
Oben gemeldete ist gebohren in America, im Staat Pennsylvania in Northampton Caunty im Allen Taunschip.
Wann wir kaum gebohren waren: Ist vom ersten Lebenstritt bis ins kühle Grab der Erden, Nur ein kurz gemessener Schritt. Ach mit jedem Augenblick! Gehet unsere Kraft zurück, Und wir sind mit jedem Jahre, allzu reiff zur Todtenbahre, Und wer weiß in welcher Stunde, uns die letzte Stimme weckt: Dann Gott hat's mit seinem Munde, keinem Menschen noch entdeckt. Wer seyn Haus nun wohl bestellt geht mit Freuden aus der Welt. Da die Sicherheit hingegen: Ewigs Sterben kan erregen.
To this married couple, Georg Edelmann and his housewife Maria Katharina, a daughter was born: Regina was born in the year of our lord Jesus 1771 on the 17th day of June at ___ o’clock with the zodiac sign ______.
Thus was the aforementioned brought into God’s bond of grave, and was baptised and christened by Mr. Jung, Priest and Servant of the Word of God on the _____ day of _____, as was reported above. The godparents were Konrad and his wife Regina.
The aforementioned person was born in America, in the State of Pennsylvania, in Northampton County in the Township Allen.
When we had just been born: It’s just a small step from the first moment of life to the cool grave of the earth. Ah, with every moment our power recedes, and with every year we come nearer to the dead man’s stretcher. And who knows at which hour the final voice will wake us: for no human can uncover what God does with his mouth. He who keeps his house in order will leave the earth with joy. Rather than security, eternal life causes stress.
