Thanks, Timo & Ellen Sorry about that! I thought the link would be to my search results page, but it was instead to the main search page. So If it is a "Church Code", how do I find out which one is 08211000. I am searching for Herzog, I believe (?) Franz that came in 1847 is probably the correct one. I just don't know how to pursue it further. My parameters on the search were: Last name: *herzog* Last place of residence: *Baden-Baden* Emigration year: *19. Jh.* Continent: *Nordamerika* Also, how do I use the emigrant ID #?
