This register records deaths for the Orthodox Jewish community of Brasov. The Jewish community split into Orthodox and Neologue factions in the late 1870s. The register records date of death, name and occupation of deceased, gender, marital status, age, parents' names, name of marriage partner still living, circumstances of death (place, cause) place and date of burial. At the time of survey (2014), only records dating to 1937 were accessible to the public due to Romanian archival regulations.
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.
