Subject: [BANAT-L] Obergeiersnest & Schondra Church Records
Date: Tue, 07 Dec 1999 21:51:12 -0800


Sue;
I doubt if the Obergeiersnest and Schondra KBs are in the Marburg
archives, but as Rosina indicates there should be someone there who
could tell you where they are located. Certainly Schondra and
Obergeiersnest belong to the See of Fulda. I have a gut feeling that
the KBs for these villages and others in the Rhoen are in a church
archives in Fulda and that the Biship of Fulda has denied the Mormons
permission to film the KBs. I hope I am wrong. You could probably get
a quick answer by subscribing to the Hessen LIST for a few days and put
up your query there.
