This collection is part of the Jewish community in Stockholm’s records on their population between 1822 and 2000 (SE/RA730128/02), including collections on members, non-members, births, confirmations, marriages, deaths, funerals, and people moving in or out of Stockholm. The records often include information on nationality, family members and professions as well. This specific collection concerns members of the Jewish community in Stockholm between 1855 and 1916. Membership in the umbrella organisation Mosaiska församlingen (Mosaic Congregation) was only granted to Jews with Swedish citizenship, which means that every individual listed in this collection was also a Swedish citizen.
The community divided their population lists into members and non-members, and this one includes only members of the Mosaic Congregation. The collection is written in Swedish. It is a register listing all individual entrances in the community book from 1855 to 1916. The names are listed in alphabetical order according to surnames. The register includes information on surname, first name, married surname and page of entry in the community book. Men’s employment is sometimes also noted. The register is written by hand. A few pages are damaged, but this does not affect legibility. The collection comprises 60 pages and is available at the Swedish National Archives’ depot in Arninge in Stockholm, but can also be consulted digitally on the archive’s website.
The surnames included in this collection are: Abel, Abrahamsson, Abramson, Adamsky, Allenstein, Almuslin, Amigo, Arnheim, Aron Isaac, Aronowitz, Aronsson, Asch, Assur, Åquist, Ballin, Barach, Bardain, Baruch, Bauer, Bähr, Belmonte, Bendix, Bendixson, Benedicks, Benjamin, Bensow, Bentzen, Behrens, Berendt, Berling, Bernhard, Bernstein, Bloin, Blum, Blumenthal, Bneike, Bonnier, Breitstein, Brodowitz, Brück, Brutzen, Buck, Caspar, Cohen, Cohn, Daus, David, Davidsohn, Davidson, Dehn, Ebelsteiner, Eisner, Elbe, Eliaschow, Eliasson, Elkan, Elliot, Färber, Feit, Frankfurt, Fränckel, Fränkel, Fridel, Friedländer, Fürst, Fürstenberg, Gans, Geber, Gisiko, Goldmann, Goldschmidt, Gottliebson, Gottschalk, Grafström, Grobgeld, Grodwall, Grün, Grünberg, Grünwald, Gumpel, Gumpert, von Halle, Hartenveld, Hartvig Essen, Heckscher, Heilbuth, Heiliger, Heiman, Heimanson, Henlé, Henriques, Hermanson, Hertz, Heyman, Hillelson, Hirsch, Hirschfeld, Hjort, Hollender, Horwitz, Hüllborn, Isaac, Isaacson, Jacob, Jacobsson, Jacoby, Janawsky, Janowsky, Jessel, Jonassohn, Jones, Josephi, Josephson, Julius, Jundelsky, Kahn, Kaiser, Kaufmann, Klein, Kluge, Kohn, Kokoch, Kokoschka, Kugelmann, Kussler, Labatt, Lachman, Lamm, Lampell, Lapinsky, Laseron, Lazarus, Leffman, Lehman, Liebenfeld, Leipziger, Leja, Leman, Levertin, Levi, Levin, Levisson, Levy, Levysohn, Lewysohn, Lieffman, Lion, Lipmanson, Lippschatz, Lippschütz, Lissner, Löwenstein, Lublin, Ludvig, Ludwig, Lyon, Magnus, Magnusson, Majer, Manheimer, Mann, Marcus, Marienpolsky, Mark, Mendel, Mendelson, Meyer, Meyerson, Michaelsson, del Monte, Moritz, Moschkowsky, Moses, Moskowitz, Müller, Mündheim, Nachman, Nachmanson, Nasielsky, Nathan, Nathanson, Neumark, Navitzky, Nissen, Obilitzky, Oppenheimer, Philip, Philipson, Pohl, Raphael, von Reis, Ries, Röbel, Rolherzon, Rosenbaum, Rosenbladt, Rosenberg, Rosenberger, Rosenfeld, Rosenthal, Roterosen, Roterson, Rothendren, Rothenberg, Ruben, Ruben Wollff, Rubens, Rubenson, Rügheimer, Sachs, Sakarias, Salmonson, Salmson, Salomon, Samson, Samuel, Samuelsson, Sapira, Scheja, Scheike, Schenk, Schlesinger, Schloss, Scholzinsky, von Schneidau, Schönthal, Schück, Seelig, Seligmann, Seiden, Silberstein, Simon, Sindahl, Soldin, Spitzer, Stiebel, Stern, Suber, Syrach, Szarkansky, Terner, Thiel, Ticktin, Ullman, Ursell, Valentin, Vallentin, Wagenheim, Wagner, Wahren, Warburg, Wehl, Weiler, Weinstein, Weitz, Welisch, Weslig, Westheimer, Wickert, Wladislawofsky, Wolff, Wolfpert, Woolfe and Zacharias.
- Archival history:
- The material in this collection was created by the Jewish community of Stockholm and transferred to the Swedish National Archives in 1979.
- Administrative/biographical history:
-
This collection was created by the Jewish community council in Stockholm, which was led by communally elected board members of the umbrella organisation Mosaiska församlingen (Mosaic Congregation). These board members were often individuals of high socio-economic rank, both within the Jewish community itself and the larger Swedish society.
The population records date from 1822 to 2000. They include information on members, non-members, births, confirmations, marriages, deaths, funerals, and people moving in or out of Stockholm. The population lists were drafted, and names were added over time. In some cases, they were rewritten to allow for better representation and ease of reading.
