Translated, last two words, one relative.
It reads: Schumacher, Peter, from Kriegsheim, with 7 children and one relation (relative). (Not a Frau, wife, as entered on others listed). In my German and English Dictionary I find the V is a B, Berwanbt means relative, kin.
P 8 Schumacher, Sarah, Von Kriegsheim, mit 7 kindern, vor 1689. This is widow of George Schumacher, who died enroute to Pennsylvania, 1689. Sister-in-law to Peter Schumacher, above. See, Genealogy of the Shoemaker Family of Cheltenham Pennsylvania, Benjamin D. Shoemaker.
