Catholic Church Records for Dorn-Dürkheim

GFre

Hello! Does anyone know where the Catholic church records for Dorn-Dürkheim are held and if they have been digitized yet? Specifically, I am looking for records from the early 1800s to 1870, which I have been unable to locate here or on Ancestry. Thank you!

According to Meyers https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/10365058 had only a Lutheran/Protestant church. The nearest Catholic parish church was in Hessloch ( https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/10786004 ). Unfortunately, the Catholic church books of this area are not yet available on Matricula (https://data.matricula-online.eu/de/landkarte/?bbox=328166%2C6025756%2C1502238%2C6627467 ).

Hi,

The following link takes you to a register of church books from Palatinate and Rhine-Hesse. In there Dorn-Dürkheim catholic records are connected to the parishes of Weinolsheim and Osthofen. The records are locked on familysearch but are searchable so you might want to check whether they possibly contain your ancestors.

Kind regards
