I am looking for the ancestors of Theodor Muench and his wife Dorothea Heidmann residing in in Arolsen, Hesse about 1804. Their son, Philipp Christiaan Ludwig Muench fled for political reasons in the 1830's and wound up in The Netherlands; he is my paternal grandfather's grandfather.
Microfiches from the churchbooks of Arolsen, now Bad Arolsen, in the churchcountry Twiste from 1652 until 1986 are at the churcharchiv Kassel, look www.ekkw.de/archiv.The churchbooks are differenced in lutherian and calvinists (reformiert) persons.
