Church address in Germany

Hi,

Sure hope someone on the list can help me as I have hit a brick wall. My gggrandfather - Heinrich Julius Schrader came to America in the 1850's and married in Milwaukee in 1857 before settling on a farm in Minnesota.

I know he came from the Duchy of Braunschweig and that he was an Evangelican Lutheran and that he was not the eldest son of a blacksmith and that is all I know about his life in Germany.

Can someone on the list tell me what church in the Duchy would have all the church records and what their mailing address is. I would like to write them after the holidays.

Also I have not been able to find any church records in the LDS
library but then I am not real good at looking. Does anyone know if there is any Lutheran records for anywhere in the Duchy of Braunschweig on microfilm?

Thanks, Gail Schrader
