Sorry, I have not seen this name. I will see if I can come up with a list of names I see in these records. But, many of these names are common to a lot of different regions of Germany. BTW, to all. I discovered that my ancestors came from Bensheim from a NYC marriage record. Since many of our German ancestors came thru NY there's a chance you might find a marriage listed in the Marriage Index. http://www.italiangen.org/NYCMarriage.stm This is the Italian site but it has all the marriages and deaths indexed for NYC. I have sent for two records, one death and one marriage. The records are great, especially the marriage records. They identify the parents and birthplace of both parties. The index provides the cert. # and with that, it only took about 3 weeks to get my copy for each of them. The LDS site has microfilm of the parish records for a lot of towns in Hesse.
