On the subject of Moravian Brethren records:  

Owing to the fact that the Moravian Brethren were not granted "official" 
status in either Poland or Volhynia, the vital stats ot Moravians were 
recorded in the church records of churches that were officially recognized by 
the civil authorities (usually Lutheran).  Therefore, conversion from 
Lutheran to Moravian would not mean that the births would not be registered 
in the Lutheran records.
