Brașov Jewish Community: register of marriages, 1886-1950 (Neologue Community)
Description:
This register records marriage from the Neologue Jewish community of Brasov. At the time of survey (2014), only records dating to 1937 were accessible to the public due to Romanian archival regulations. Entries are fairly complete until 1896, after which just the names and residence of bride and groom are entered plus date and place of the wedding. Prior to 1896 entries contained data as typical for earlier record books including data regarding the parents of the couple, birthplace, occupation, witnesses, official, etc. Until about 1920, all entries are recorded in Hungarian, after which they are in Romanian with parent names recorded in Hebrew below the name of the bride and grooom. Around this time entries again become more complete.
The civil register books were normally maintained by the respective parish authorities of each town or village. At some point in time in the post-World War II period these records were collected by the National Archives.
