-===Census of the parish (''Stiftskirche'') in Baden-Baden from 1765===
-The Catholic parishes used to establish at Easter time each year a list of their parishioners, the so called ''Status animarum''. The list of 1765 issued by the ''Stiftskirche'' contains the full name of the head of household, the full name of his wife, also if she happens to be a widow. Then follow the children with their ages and the number of servants. The ''Stiftskirche'' had jurisdiction over the following places: city of Baden, Scheuern, Dollen, Gunzenbach, Fremersberg and all farms, Ebersteinburg, Ober- and Unterbeuern, Geroldsau, Schmalbach, Geisbach, Mahlbach, Mühlenbach, Neuhaus. Not on the list are the places Oos and Balg as well as the monastery Lichtental.
