So, imagine how pleased I was to find some of the records online in the Internet Archive. The Pennsylvania-German Society published their Proceedings and Addresses in the 1890s. Several volumes included records from Trinity Lutheran Church.

  1. The Pennsylvania-German Society, Proceedings and Addresses at Lebanon, October 12, 1892, Volume III
  2. The Pennsylvania-German Society, Proceedings and Addresses at York, October 11, 1893, Volume IV
  3. The Pennsylvania-German Society, Proceedings and Addresses at Reading, October 3, 1894, Volume V
  4. The Pennsylvania-German Society, Proceedings and Addresses at Bethlehem, October 16, 1785, Volume VI

These are just the volumes containing the Trinity Lutheran records. Other volumes that have been put online include records from St. Michael’s in Philadelphia and New Goshenhoppen in Upper Hanover, Montgomery County. View more examples of publications from the Pennsylvania-German Society to see if they might have records you’ve been looking for.
