| Abstract | An examination of the christening records of the Lutheran Parish of Grossgertach in Wuerttemberg was undertaken to answer the following questions: Did the amount of information recorded fluctuate over the years? Were the content and format of church records determined by individual pastors, or did those pastors react to requests or decrees from church or government officials? To what extent did stylistic or even artistic factors play in the keeping of church records? Did social, political, military, economic, or other events and conditions affect the keeping of church records over the years? Illustrated with examples from the original church records. |
