    1. Re: [BAVARIA] YOLJ
    2. Tom, Try to go through the Archives Dept. of the Archdiocese which oversees the original church you mention. They are usually the most helpful and deal with these types of requests much more often than local churches. Often local priests are busy with their ministering and do not want to be bothered with genealogical requests. One of the reasons the church has their records filmed is so that the local priests will not have the burden of accommodating such requests and can more fully direct their attention to their ministering. Even better, do a Place search on LDS for this church in Louisville on the Internet to see what, if any, records LDS did film for this church. If it shows up, the search will tell you exactly what was filmed (including years and types of records) and available for you to look at. Then you can either search for them yourself at a FHL, or THEN contact the Archdiocese Archives Dept. and ask for the procedure to procure the records from them. Joanne
