    3. Hello Pat Blackwell Thank you for the fascinating facts about the churches in Kirchheimbolanden. Mozart's organ puts it high on my list of places to visit. W.

Blackwell Sent: April 10, 2007 7:55 AM To: pfalz@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [Pfalz] Kirchheimbolanden Perhaps Fred Held can help with information and the possible impact on baptismal and marriage records, but I think I recall from a visit and research of my area SCHEU family, the St Paul's church building or location in Kirchheimbolanden may have been Evangelisch during my family's time (before 1854) but is Catholic today. I think it may have even been shared at some time. The village square is marked my a statue of Mozart, who made St. Paul's church and it's organ (Stumm 1745) famous by playing there in 1778. http://www.mozartways.com/content.php?m=2&typ2=52&lang=en The website above indicates that an early Catholic church building is now a rifle club.
