Notes - Three Johannes Opfermann were baptized in the time frame that would fit someone getting married circa 1757.
From KB 1767-1825:
#1
Baptized 15 Nov 1726 (img 441, church book page 161), child of Friedrich Opfermann.
Confirmed 1741 at age 14 (img 517, church book page 309) [1741-14 = 1727)
#2
Baptized 18 Feb 1732 (img 445, church book page 170), child of Hyronimus Opfermann.
Confirmation records for 1743 to 1750 missing.
No Niedenstein death record found.
Merxhausen 1723-1740 death records missing.
#3
Baptized 22 May 1736 (img 450, church book page 179), child of Hyronimus Opfermann.
Confirmed 1751, born Mar 1736 (img 518, church book page 311)
I have assumed #2 died prior to #3 being born since they both have the same father.
A 21 May 1760 death record was found in KB 1653-1767 (img 560) for Johannes Opfermann, no age at death noted.
This same record is found in KB-Abschrift 1653-1766 (img 603, page 474).
A 20 Jun 1760 death record was found in KB 1653-1767 (img 648) for Johannes Opfermann, no age at death noted.
This same record is NOT found in KB-Abschrift 1653-1766 (img 603, page 474).
These 2 death records are identical, except for the dates.
I used the 21 May 1760 death date.
These death dates fits with regard to the 2nd marriage for Anna Martha Hillebrand on 27 Nov 1761.
I have assumed this is the husband of Anna Martha Hillebrand.
I could find no way to determine if Johannes, husband of Anna Martha Hillebrand, is Johannes #1 or #3.
I reviewed all baptism records for Hyronimus, Friedrich, and Paul who I believe are brothers and all sons of "old" Johannes Opfermann. Since Friedrich and Hyronimus are brothers, "old" Johannes Opfermann is the grandfather of Johannes, husband of Anna Martha Hillebrand.
