Deutsch Schützen: Catholic Church Records
This database is courtesy of BB member Susan OMeara, who began a project to transcribe
selected Catholic marriage records from Deutsch Schützen (Hungarian: Német-Lö,
Német-Lövo; Kroat: Nimke ice) to help trace her family lines and then
turned it into a complete transcription project.
The current transcription for the Deutsch Schützen Catholic parish for the years 1828
to 1895 consists of the complete transcription of the 435 marriage records from 1828 through
May 1876, the 173 death records from 1828 through July 1832, and the 306 birth records
from 1828 through 1835. In addition, there are transcriptions of 34 selected marriage records from
1876 to 1895, 164 selected death records from 1832 to 1895, and 137 selected birth records from 1836
to 1895. Copyright remains with Susan.
[Transcription of the remaining marriages for years 1876 to 1895 is underway; transcription of the
remaining births and deaths may be done when marriages are complete.]
While Deutsch Schützen (Német-Lö) was the only Burgenland village
in this parish, other villages that appear frequently are:
- Horvát Lö, Horvát Lövo, HU (German: Kroatisch Schützen;
Kroat: Hrvatske ice);
- Höll (Hungarian: Pokulfalu, Hétföhely);
- Eisenberg an der Pinka, Schauka (Hungarian: Csejke);
- Pornó, Pornóapáti, HU (German: Pernau; Kroat:
Pornova); and
- Keresztes, HU [Vas Keresztes, Magyar Keresztes,
Német Keresztes] (German: Großdorf).
The underlined Hungarian names are used throughout the database to identify the villages.
Note: The column labeled "FS Page" in the databases identifies the image page
on which each record appears in the Deutsch Schützen FamilySearch collection.
