This Note starts a new topic. There were rumors that a certain name would be found in the records for the Lutheran church in Unteroewisheim. I ordered the film from the LDS and I have been searching some. Unteroewisheim is a couple of miles from Oberoewisheim, which is less than a mile from Neuenbuerg where the Blankenbakers, Fleshmans, Scheibles, Thomases, and Schlucters lived.
The films for Unteroewisheim are good. One of the delights in using the film is that large sections of it are indexed. Different people have gone through the material and made an alphabetical index to the names. The people who did this were better than average writers. They followed the classical letter formations, though there was a tendency to use fanciful versions. Being in alphabetical order (almost) it made the reading easier. I thought I would provide a summary of the names that I read. The first group is from the birth records from 1594 to 1630 (note this overlaps portions of the Thirty Years’ War). Here we go:
