This book records births that took place within families in and around the town of Periam from 1880-1885. Entries were generally completed meticulously, though sometimes messily, and record the names of the child and parents; the birth date and place; gender; whether the birth was legitimate; information on circumcisions; midwives; and, on occasion, names of witnesses (to the circumcision or name-giving) or godparents. The book is printed in German and Hungarian; the entries are in Hungarian with occasion notes in German. Addenda are in Hungarian and Romanian and deal with the death of the individual, name changes, release of birth certificate (generally for emigration purposes).
These registers were maintained by the respective Jewish community and/or local municipality and collected in the 1950s by the National Archives.
