Scope and content:: The relevant portions of this collection are the indices and registers (1853-61) of the Imperial County Office of Sibiu. Registers are arranged in approximate chronological order. Relevant entries can be found by searching for words such as “Juden” or “Israeliten” (Jews), or by the names of individual members of the Jewish community. The indexes and registers provide a short summary of the case or document, along with the case or document number. The registers typically provide a fuller summary and often include opening and resolution dates as well as a short description of the resolution. In some cases documents may be preserved and may be requested by the document numbers recorded in the registers and indices, although not all documents are still extant. In addition to the indices and registers comprising the bulk of the collection, there are also indices for circulars and various orders (1852-56), a register of recruits (1861) and registers and indices for local offices: Sibiu (1853-54), Orlat (1856-60), Cisnădie (1853-54) and Săliște (1851-54).

Archival history:: No information is provided as to when these papers were acquired by the National Archives.

System of arrangement:: Indices are arranged alphabetically by name of individual or organisation, or in some cases by topic.
