My family story is from Hesse, where I have found in a church book a 
notation that a Lutheran pastor refused to baptize the son of an 
ancestor, until that ancestor threatened to take him to his home 
community for baptism. That man was working in Saxony at that time, and 
Hesse was reformed. The Lutheran pastor probably wanted to convert him. 
This was in the early 1800's.  The pastor of the home church explained 
it to me, that they were not Lutheran but Reformed. Carol
