Heinrich Schneider Oberheimbach Rheinland-Pfalz

[Greygirl]

Trying to trace the roots of one of my great-great grandfathers Heinrich Schneider and his wife Margarethe Egemeier based on the following information from the christening of my great grandmother Henrietta Schneider in the Evangelisch Gemeinde Sterkrade:

Henriette Schneider, * 02.04.1862, ~ 13.04.1862, Tochter von Heinrich Schneider, katholisch, Wollweber aus Oberheimbach bei Bacharach, und Margarethe, geb. Egemeier, aus Wesel

I have tracked down a family book for the catholic parish of Oberheimbach to the Bavarian State Library in München but it is not available on line. Is there a central repository for catholic records in Germany?

N. Catharina * 1702 + 3.11.1732

Maria Anna * 1.7.1725

Thanks Dave - I saw your post on Ahnenforschung.net on my behalf and I really appreciate your help. At the very least it has saved me shelling out 27 Euros for the book! I have contacted the local history group at Niederheimbach (just down the hill from Oberheimbach) and they have offered to send me some possible contacts once their local festival is finished
