Find Ancestors

Mathias leif died 1990 in Germany.

Thank you. He was Roman Catholic and so the Daun church and Leif and Catholic looks interesting. As German records are not kept centrally, does anyone know how I find out where to apply to get copies of these or other documents?

Really appreciate all help.
