This book records marriages that took place in the town of Timișoara from 1887 to 1939, primarily in the Iosefin/Josefstadt/Józsefváros quarter. At the time of the survey (2016), researchers were not allowed access to entries later than 1915. Entries record the names, age, marital status (widow, etc), occupation of the bride and groom; their parents' names, residence, and (sometimes) occupation; where and when wedding was announced; and date, place, and officiant of the wedding. The book is printed and recorded in Hungarian; presumably during the interwar period Romanian begins to be used. Hebrew names are often recorded as well.
These registers were maintained by the respective Jewish community and/or local municipality and collected in the 1950s by the National Archives.
Access Rights:
At the time of the survey (2016) entries later than 1915 were inaccessible to researchers, unless proof of relation is provided.
