This transcription is German except for one Latin phrase, Eodem die et hora ( “On the same day and hour” ).  Zumd is the pastor’s shorthand for zusammengefasst, the German word for “combined”.  Clearly, the pastor was not the fan of compound words and verbs.  He could have written in Latin if he wanted but his parshioners didn’t have the education to read Latin.  Besides,  ever since the Reformation, Latin was a Catholic thing so it wasn’t cool for the Lutheran pastors to use it at their churches.  But they could still use it to look good to the scholars, the historians, the scientists, etc.

Translated from the German and Latin :
“1620.

“GARETHA [ and ] buried.  On the same day and hour, died also at the same time
