help with 1st time genealogy for RUTMAN in Wurttemberg

My immigrant ancestor, Walter Rutman (or variation in spelling), was born in 1805 in Wurttemberg in either Ludwigshafen or Ludwigsburg. Im just starting German genealogy and wondered if I should look for civil or parish birth records? Would I find them online, at the LDS library or have to write to Germany?

Thank you so much for the advice.

Sincerely,

Neil Rutman
