Hello List - I have Hollenbach's history of Heidelburg Union Church but did not know there was another history. There are indeed gaps in Hollenbach's work, but I guess he published all he could find. Between Warren Ziegler's work and the various pastoral records of the area pastors, I was able to get a pretty good picture of my Schleich family there in the mid-late 1700's. Hollenbach's work is not indexed so I cannot do lookups. Rev.
