Title:

Cluj (Hung: Kolozsvár), Israelites: marriages 1885-1888; 1906-1921 (Orthodox)

Alternative Title:

Esketési Jegyzőkönyv.

Description:

This register records marriages for the Orthodox Jewish community of Cluj. The headings and entries are in Hungarian. The Hebrew name is provided on occasion. It is not clear why there is an almost 20-year gap in entries; perhaps a second marriage records book served as the authoritative register. In general the entries were not comprehensively completed: they frequently only provide names of the bride and groom and date and place of ceremony whereas normally such a book includes information on the parents of the bride and groom. Please note that at the time of the present survey (2016), marriages taking place later than 1914 were not legally accessible.
