On June 30, 2011, I visited the Evangelical Church Archives of Pommerania, located in Greifswald, Germany. I photographed the Archives' summary page on Spantekow records, the labels of the three boxes that contain the Spantekow church records, and about 170 images of portions of the record pages, covering most of the images (but not all) for 1680-1771. These are NOT complete: there are only a few pre-1709 pages included, and there are some pages from 1709-1771 that are not included.
