The Family History Center lists that they have microfilm copies of the Church Books for Freistett, Baden available. They can be rented for a nominal fee through your local Family History Center.Go to www.familysearch.org for your closest FHC. You can go to the catalog section to see the records available - you will need the film numbers to order them. The records apparently go back to 1621 and from my past experience will be in old German scrip and in Latin. Hope this helps. Dan Bravard Columbus, Ohio.
