Title:

Town of Solca: register of births; 1896-1929

Description:

This register contains handwritten German (beginning in 1922 in Romanian) entries with titles printed in German as well. It lists names of child and parents, including in many cases mother's maiden name and name, residence, and profession of her parents, father's profession, address of residence, date of birth, and date of circumcision. Name, profession, and place of residence are also given for witnesses, mohel, and midwife. Amendments and comments, later ones occasionally in Romanian, are listed in the final column. The book is notably tailored for use in the Jewish community, including the aforementioned columns for date of circumcision and name of sandek and mohel.
