Re: HEIM Charles G.; DEU>NY,USA; 1869 Dear Bonnie: Write to: Evangelische Gemeinde Bad Cannstatt Stuttgart Germany The German churches keep birth,marriage and death registries. With your appr. birthdate they should be able to locate Charles Heim (I would ask for Karl Heim).The entries usually show father and mother. It will costyou a small search fee. Good luck Roger M.
