Searching for records from Ansbach Military
I am looking for the birth record of Johann Martin Schultheiß (G7DW-6X3), born around 1741. I have one (unverified) family tree source that says he was born in the Ansbach Militärgemeniede. His parents are Wilhelm Friedrich Schultheiß and Regina Elisabeth geb. Söhnlein.
Any suggestions as to where I can find those records?
Thanks!

You can find his birth record in Archion. https://www.archion.de/de/viewer/?no_cache=1&type=churchRegister&uid=195752
Archion.de is where a collaboration of Lutheran church archives throughout Germany provide digital access to church records online. A subscription (e.g. one month) is required to view the records. If you are new to using Archion.de, review this How To Guide to learn how to subscribe and navigate the website. https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/img_auth.php/9/91/1_-_Using_Archion_for_German_Research_-_Instruction_B_Johnson_Oct_2018_JMR.pdf
To locate the Ansbach military parish records, select the Bavarian archive in the first column. In the second column, scroll down to find Militärseelsorge, then select Ansbach-Militärgemeinde in the third column.
