Hi Carol,
I'd contact the Mannheim Archive for City History (Stadtarchiv Mannheim), address and necessary infos below. They should have most docs and infos you need for further research and if not could give you info on where to find respective church records for example.
Tried to translate the most important phrases etc. Hope you'll manage to get around this way. Not sure how they'll treat queries in English. But just give it a try.
Rgds from Hamburg and good luck,
Gisela
