Dear Sheila,

Until 1937 Fischbach, church parish Fischbach and Kirn-Sulzbach, church parish Sulzbach made part of Oldenburg,

they were part of Birkenfeld, a territory in the Palatinate that belonged to Oldenburg since 1814.

Now the region is part of the federal state Rheinland-Pfalz (Rhineland-Palatinate). The state archives in charge is at Koblenz.

There is book on the emigrants from that region
with vast name lists:

Robert Moersdorf, Die Auswanderung aus dem Birkenfelder Land, Bonn 1939,
Family History Library: Books 943.59/B 11 W 28

Perhaps you would want to start with that useful book - though it is in German

Sincerely yours

Falk Liebezeit
Diepholz
