This book records deaths that took place in the town of Timișoara from 1862 to 1885. Please note that though this book is catalogued as the "citadel" (cetate) community book, most of the deceased lived in other neighborhoods, primarily Fabrik and Josefstadt (today Fabric and Iosefin). Entries record the name, birth place, occupation (sometimes), gender, residence, and marital status of the deceased; date, place, and cause of death; immediate surviving relatives; and place and date of burial. Especially the earlier entries tend to be incomplete. The book is printed in German and recorded in German until around the mid-1870s when it transitions to Hungarian.
These registers were maintained by the respective Jewish community and/or local municipality and collected in the 1950s by the National Archives.
