[PRINTED-ERROR: In the row "Strobel, W. T." the cell for Communicants: total carries a printed
question mark "?"; the compositor had no figure. Likewise in several rows (Seßler, Stephan,
Strobel, Studt, Thurner, Weber, Reisinger, Ahner) only the total columns are filled while
"local"/"nonlocal" stand empty: those pastors returned totals only. Printed so, given so.]
