Ed. Notes:

• Close by this church is the town of Mertztown.
• There appear to be 2 couples named Peter Voegele & Elisabeth.
• We have used boldface type for supposed direct line ancestors (ie. both Peter & Heinrich Vogele); italics to highlight interactions of the Mertz/Marz, Vogele, & Klein families.
• The original records were in German. The copy we work from has been translated & grouped by surname of the marriage couple or baptismal parents. We have added the names of baptismal sponsors & others found within those groupings.
