There is a map of Bavaria and its counties at: _http://wiki-en.genealogy.net/Bavaria_ (http://wiki-en.genealogy.net/Bavaria) The map may be helpful for people who are using the German white pages. I found that using the map may require a login (registration that is free). Once you log in you can use the "community portal". Over a year ago Ed Brant was updating his very comprehensive book on German Genealogy. I submitted some data for him and I believe it included some links to on line databases in Germany that I found at that time. The librarians at the Stuttgart Heimat library should know of any databases that are available through any of the German churches (protestant records are considered public while Catholic ones are sort of "private") or other organizations that collect immigration and vital records for Germany.
