Hi guys,
In my travels and while doing my own German Family History Research I have obtained copies of the following Church Family Books (Familienbucher) for Hessen.
Familienbuch Oberrosbach v.d. Höhe by Gottlieb See (dated 1987) covering births, marriages & deaths for the years 1663-1899
and
Familien in Grüningen (kreis Giessen) by Dr Heinz Lothar Worm (dated 1990) covering births, marriages & deaths for the years 1647-1900
If anyone has family in these areas and would like me to look them up in the books, please reply to this thread or send me a personal message 
Hope this helps someone!
Jenny
P.S They are written in German and while I do not speak German I can transcribe the details for you and you may be able to get a translation. Names and dates are pretty easy tho

Hi Jen,
a lovely offer !
If you find any requested names, just write the details here, as you see them. We have enough german speakers here to do the translations.
For those wondering what Familienbuecher are (Local Heritage Books), the Ortsfamilienbücher (OFB) or Ortssippenbücher (OSB) are described here: http://wiki-en.genealogy.net/FAQ_Local_Heritage_Book some (but not many) are also online: http://www.online-ofb.de/index.html
