Dear Helmut
I received a friendly email reply from Hans Peter Voss to my letter enquiring about the kirche records today and copy below. Not sure if you can take anything more from this than that written in English but it may help in the general understanding about how limited the Island records are for parts of their history. Very sad I think.
