Giebel (Gibel) Purchase Agreement dated September 19, 1731
This purchase agreement is dated 1731. It hasn't been translated into English, but a transcript in a modern Swiss dialect was made by Mr Eduard Ehrler. However, the character set wasn't available for this dialect, so a photographed copy of the transcript is appended to the original photographed document. Vorder Gibel was purchased from Hans Burki. More information about Mr. Burki is available on this website. There is listing of debts on this document, and one debit is owed to Christian Gerber, the father of Michael Gerber who was purchasing Giebel. The document also states that Michael Gerber came from Dorft (most likely Oben im Dorft) as his family was known to live there.
