So it appears the village is part of a larger town called Wunstorf. If you
do not find any parish records in Klein Hidorn, then try Wunstorf.

Hello David,

Bonita is right.
Klein Heidorn is today part of the city of Wunstorf, about 20 km west of the city of Hannover.
The responsible parish for Klein Heidorn is the Stiftskirche in Wunsrorf. The parish records of Wunstorf begin at 1614 (baptism), 1623 (marriages) and 1717 (funerals). But there are several gaps before 1717.
All parish records (microfiches) are in Hannover. There you can order photocopies etc. The address is:

Stadtkirchenkanzlei
Kirchenbuchamt
Postfach 57 40
30057 Hannover

Good luck
