I have spent the entire morning reading church registers on microfilm from 1760-1810 from Mudau, Baden- Württemberg. One of the priests had a very good legible handwriting but some others have made ink spots with their goose quills and obliterated valuable information. I found that taking a yellow sheet of paper with me and putting it on the reading top will sharpen the image. There I found some names that were frequent in our own German Bohemian homeland. If you have the surnames listed below in your family pedigree maybe this will help you to some connections and their place of origin. I have found some of mine!
