The object of this project was to list the place names within the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg, along with: 1) Physical description, i.e. farm, city, etc. 2) Community to which it belonged. 3) The name of the district. 4) The Lutheran parish jurisdiction. 5) Where the Lutheran records are housed. 6) The Catholic parish jurisdiction. 7) Where the Catholic records are housed.
