Above is a map of northern Hesse, where the Dutes came from. The territory shown here is about 18 miles across.


Below is the inside of the church at Asmushausen, which Heinrich Dute and family must have attended. This picture originally came from Walter Sprankel. Below that is St. Peter's Church in Amherst, OH (though most of the Dutes actually went to Old Stone Church), with an inset of the church in Asmushausen for comparison, from Marilyn Tyler. Below that is another view of the church in Asmushausen, from Gilda Gleim Kinzer.
