Register of individuals who renounced Romanian citizenship
Description:
This register contains the names and sometimes birthdates of Siret residents who renounced their citizenship in 1941. Prior to this a law had been passed revoking Jews of Romanian citizenship, but perhaps it was not universally applied. The citizenship adopted in lieu of Romanian includes Austrian, Palestinian, American, Canadian, Argentinian, etc. There are also numerous non-Jewish individuals who renounced their citizenship, also for Austria or Poland, Germany (for the ethnic Germans), Czechoslovakia, and France. The bulk of individuals in this list however is Jews and the citizenship they adopted was Austrian.
