	I indexed the marriage and baptism records in a spreadsheet(938 lines), 
record by record; noting the following:
	
	year
	type of record b(birth=taufbuch), m(marriage=traubuch)
	surname of witness or godparent
	given name (with village of residence if shown)
	surname of child or groom/bride (parents surnames if given)
	forename
	location
	record sheet number
		
	Invariably I made typos in the spreadsheet entries; I have attempted to 
correct all of them but some may remain.

	I then saved the spreadsheets in a text file; then had to remove all the 
tabs that were in the text files.  The last operation was to add html tags to the 
text files to bring upthe appropriate record page image. I have alternated those 
tags: year, name, year, name etc. to lessen the chance of hitting the wrong tag.

	Names are given as they appear in the records; thus we have Cay-Kai-Kay-Kei 
as a surname.  Forenames have the same problem:  Clags-Clas-Claus, Trien-Trin-
Trinke.

	I have not used umlauts in names, using instead  ae  oe  ue (this is not 
true for Kuhl).
