Is there a German website comparable to the Danish website Statens Arlivers Arkivalieronline which provides scanned copies of the parish records?

Michael, Thank you for your help and direction. Gave me an avenue to head.

For Jill Nowak: There are several very active Germans from Russia organizations. Go to the GRHS.org website or the NDSU website: http://library.ndsu.edu/grhc/. Both have excellent websites with lots of history and genealogy information. All of my ancestors are Germans from Russia and I have been researching them for several years. If I can be of any help, let me know.

I'm writing my family history. Looking to add some flavour to my history and hoping someone can suggest some books that would offer some history, culture and traditions and insite into the people of this area around the arly 1800's. My relatives were specifically from the Baden area, Osensbach, Rust as well as Alasce, Strasbourg. Any reading or reference material we welcomed.

Researcing the surnames Weikert and Graf for my best friend. I only have a US sub to Ancestry so any help would be fantastic. The family currently lives in Altenstadt.
