This is a finding aid to records of people named Michels or Wester in the parish registers of the Catholic church at Bertrange, Luxembourg. It is not complete. Although we tried to find every reference, we may have overlooked some because the microfilm records are hard to read. Moreover, we have not finished. We stopped at page 316.

While searching through the microfilm page by page, we created the abstracts which are typed below. We then made a Xerox copy of each record so that you can read the complete text of the record.
