German surmane SECHRIEST

I think, it's a variant of SECHRIST:

The German word "Sigrist" is not in use any more (except in Switzerland). The name SECHRIST is *very* rara in Germany, as SECHRIEST it is almost nonexistant (5 or 6 hits at Google on German sites). I have never heard of either.

By the way, the German vocabulary word "Sigrist" is from Latin "sacer" (holy). So it's the "keeper of the Sanctuary".
