Notes:

From the Heldberg Kirchenbuch:
I (Wilbur Kalb) tried to figure out who were the parents of Anna Barbara Eberhard.  Looking at her marriage record, I noticed that, when she married Georg Andreas Buchenröder, she was the widow of Johann Peter Dittrief of Heldburg and born Anna Dorothea Eberhardt.  So I backed up for a few years and found the record of her first marriage to Johann Peter Dieterieb.  It took place on 15 August 1699 — four days before the birth of their son   Yes, it was a shotgun wedding, done in secret, with a lengthy writeup, sprinkled with some Latin and a few choice words, from the pastor.  The record itself is rather hard to decipher but it looks like Anna Dorothea was the legitimate middle daughter of Henrich Eberhardt, whose middle name is undecipherable at this moment.  As you can see, her new husband’s surname does not have a consistent spelling ; if I find him in the burials, his surname would have a different spelling, perhaps Dieterich.  Here’s the record of Anna Dorothea’s first marriage :
