Please change his LNAB to Harmann. According to the German Wikipedia-entry and to the birth entry, his LNAB is only written with one A in the beginning.

I changed the FamilySearch record, it now says "digitized by Ancestry". Please go there. But both birth records that are available on FamilySearch have the surname of the family written with one A.
