Is there any for Neckar Kreis? I have looked at the LDS films which were not that great. Any help or sugestions would be much appreciated. Dan Hi Dan Neckar Kreis is a large area. It is 25% of Wuerttemberg with about 1000 villages and towns including the city of Stuttgart. I do not know of any of the church records on line. Some of the village church records have been extracted and the information is in the IGI. You can use _http://genealogie.becker-wiesbaden.de/igi/igi_search.php_ (http://genealogie.becker-wiesbaden.de/igi/igi_search.php) to obtain the IGI batch numbers for the villages that have been extracted. Many are in progress so all are not complete at this time. To find an ancester you need village name as all church books are by village. The phone book and the IGI are the only source that covers all of Germany or Wuerttemberg. Look for your ancester in the IGI and then see if the records for their village have a batch number. Rheinbischofsheim is in Baden and it's church book is on line. Kent **************Need a job? Find employment help in your area.
