Oberbach early to mid 1800s

[Patti_AZ]

Hello, I'm new here -- nice to meet you all.

My Gx3 grandfather immigrated to the US before 1850 and listed "Oberbach" as his hometown on his marriage registration and the baptism record for his first child. He was born around 1820. Would this be the village of Oberbach near Wildflecken?  Or does Oberbach signify a region?  I haven't been able to find any German records for him. If it is the Oberbach near Wildflecken, does anyone know where those records (Catholic) would be kept?
