Israelite community, district of Lugoj: Alphabetic index to birth records (1852-1856)
Description:
This book is an alphabetic index of names found in the birth record book for the district of Lugoj from 1852-1856. It is possible earlier births are also recorded, but there is no clear indication of this. The index records only name and page number on which the individual's entry may be found in the original birth record book. Note that the page number corresponds with the original page number, not the subsequent one given by the National Archives. On the left-hand side of any given page, there are handwritten notes about various individuals, recording an array of biographical details - birth place and date, names including Hebrew name on occasion, etc. Some of these appear to have been made later than 1856 (years up until the early 1900s appear) but this information is not organized in any comprehensive form. The index is in Hungarian for the most part, with some notes in German and some Hebrew names recorded. Please see both the entry for the original record book, which is catalogued under district of Lugoj, nr. 1 [Plasa Lugoj, nr. 1] and a second alphabetic index, which covers a much longer period, catalogued under district of Lugoj, nr. 9 [Plasa Lugoj, nr. 9].
