| Language: Romanian; Hungarian; Hebrew |
| Extent: four boxes (circa .8 meter) |
| Arrangement: Chronological |
| Scope and Content: This series contains registers and one box of oversized materials, consisting of posters and a map. The registers include some civil status records, registers of membership with dues and tax information, school registers, minutes of meetings and others. Of particular interest to scholars may be the record of board meeting minutes from the interwar period which contains approximately 160 pages. This register is in Hungarian (box R-1). Also of interest is the register created by the “Department of Statistics” of the Jewish community during World War II. This register records information on individuals, including those “evacuated” from villages, in forced labor, and deportees to Transnistria. In addition, the register “Burials in Deva Jewish Cemetery” (box R-1) contains around 100 loose sheets of unrelated material including community inventories and references to the “little synagogue” which functioned at least into the 1950s. Finally, the school registration books may be of interest to genealogists as they contain many details on the individual pupil’s background such as name, birth date and place, ethnicity, religion, citizenship, father’s name and profession, home address, classes taken and grades. |

| Scope and Content: This series is very small, consisting of just one box of material. Of most interest is the notebook listing “evacuees” (forcibly resettled) from surrounding villages. Also unique is the small volume of prints printed in Cluj in 1947 by D. Izraeli entitled Memento: 1942-1945. There are very few copies of this book circulating in libraries today. It is signed Salamon Eva, 1949. |
