Historical footnote of importance. The Rheinland-Palatinate is a long
way away (at least for Germans) from Bavaria. (Hey, on the autobahn it's
maybe two and a half hours at 90 mph plus...). But at different times
parts of the Rheinland-Palatinate belonged "administratively" to
Bavaria, which is why the IGI will have these kinds of references.

You will also find references to "Bavarian Palatinate" as well. All I
can suggest is going to Wikipedia to discover the complexities of the
history of "German lands" as the Germans themselves say.

Cheers,
Jeff Richards

Isn't Pirmasans [sp?] a town in Bavaria, [Bayern] the second word
"Evaneliscue" looks to me like a misspelling of "Evangeliche"
Evangelical or REFORMED church..... Possibly the Reformed Church of
Lemberg??
