Mottgers KB 1650-1661 missing image

[stewartbaldwin]

In the digitization of the earliest Church Book of Mottgers [Landeskirchliches Archiv Kassel > Schlüchtern > Mottgers > KB 1650-1661], two facing pages (which would be pages 2 and 3 in the pagination given in a later hand) have been accidentally omitted in the scanning, between Bild 528 and Bild 529. The bottom of the first page of the records (the right-hand page on Bild 528) is torn at the bottom, so that the page underneath it shows through partly, and this is not the page that appears in the next image. Will such accidental omissions eventually be digitized and added? If so, does that cause the image numbers of the following pages to increase? (I hope not. That would make the pages harder to cite.) If this is not the right place to report such problems, where should I report it?

What's actually missing are baptims between mid of June until end of December of the year 1650 and between January and June, 24 of the year 1651.

The providing archive in Kassel needs to check whether these two pages still exist at all and have only been omitted from digitization, or if these pages are already missing in the original church book.

If you come across potential issues like this, click on the feed-back button (second icon from the left above the image) in order to report these.

Thank you for the information. The missing pages are pages 2 and 3, which are not part of the same sheet, because page 2 is the other side of page 1 and page 3 is the other side of page 4. Pages 1 and 4 have been scanned, and part of page 3 can be seen through the missing piece of the sheet having pages 1 and 2, so these pages were not missing at the time of scanning.
