This book records births that took place in and around the town of Sânnicolaul Mare from 1837 to 1884 (note the National Archives has this catalogued as including births only until 1876) or in families living in Sânnicolaul Mare and the region during the mid-late 19th century. The entries are not chronological and as such, it is presumed the register was a record of birth information of community members rather than a running register of births. Entries were generally completed meticulously and record the names of the child and parents (including maiden name of mother); the birth date and place; gender; whether the birth was legitimate; information on circumcisions; midwives; and names of witnesses (to the circumcision or name-giving) or godparents and other remarks. The book is printed and recorded in Hungarian.
