18th Century Records of the German Lutheran Church of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (St. Michael's and Zion), Volume 2: Baptisms 1770-1786 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781680349283)

Dr. Hess's years of dedication to this project have created a ground-breaking genealogical series and a must-have for those with Lutheran ancestors in the Philadelphia region. Until this series, these records had never been fully translated and thus were unavailable to researchers. This is the second in a five-volume series that Dr. Hess has translated from the original German. The first three volumes cover baptisms, volume four covers marriages and confirmations, and volume five covers burials. The baptism records include the names of the child, parents and witnesses.
