Randy, thanks for your prompt reply. I'll try CARMER on page 332. "St. Michaels and St. Philips Parishes" -- are these Catholic parishes that Simon SCHERMER/CARMER at #54 Saint Philip Street might have belonged to? He was Catholic from Holland. His wife was from Germany. If so, where would records be for these parishes? He was married about 1846, and they had two children -- 26 Oct 1848? and 20 Apr 1850? He died 1854? I have corresponded with St. Patrick's parish on Saint Philip Street, St. Mary's, and with the Charleston Diocese (St. John the Baptist) but they have no records of these SCHERMERs. I suppose now I need to try "CARMER." <smile> Thanks again for any help you can be. Daniel Daniel J.
