Hello Ray,
here the translation of my mail:
Like others I am looking for lists with batch numbers for places in
Baden, Schlesien und Westfalen (Germany). Sometimes ago there was a
information in a mailing list, that a 'Parish and Vital Records List' is
existing at LDS. The list should contain project numbers, which should
be identical to the IGI batch numbers.
Some weeks ago I had the opportunity to look at these microfiches. The
list contains for many places 'project and reference numbers', covering
the time period from the 16th to the 19th century.
The batch numbers for a certain place are much easier to find with this
'Parish and Vital Records List', than with present proposed methods.
I take some numbers of some places in Baden-Wuerttemberg and Westfalen.
Generally the current batch numbers correspond with the project numbers,
but unfortunately for many project numbers is the result "no matches".
Nevertheless checks make sense to clear, for which places and time
period's information in IGI exists. I don't know, if it is scheduled to
add records for the missing places.
The above statements refer to batch numbers beginning with the letters
C, J, K and M. As known, further records are available in IGI with no or
other kind of batch numbers.
My results for the Mosbach area (Baden-Wuerttemberg/Germany) can be find
under the URL
I try to continue the site with places of interest for my research.
