Thank you Tessa. By the way, what is an "usher?"

My understanding is that it was a "doorkeeper" - especially in a court of law, or municipal building...
Many of the witnesses on these records were just people who happen to be around the town hall at that moment, either working there or doing business there (like presenting a child, announcing a death, etc.)

Maybe someone else with contribute their thoughts
