Among these are copies of Romanian Ministry of Internal Affairs orders on repatriating Jews located in Transnistria back to Dorokhoi county; orders of the War Cabinet of the Governorate of Bessarabia on procedures for issuing Jews permits entitling them to move from one population centre to another, and entitling Jewish converts to Christianity to remain in rural areas; General Directorate of Police orders that Jews be deported from rural population points and be concentrated in county centres; orders of the Directorate of Military Justice and the Romanian Ministry of National Defense regarding the law of 3 February 1943 regarding the punishment of Jews who refused forced labour or deserted from work (1943); and a report of the Cetatea Alba [Chetatia-Albe] police on the condition of Jews located in that city, with lists of these persons (1943).
There are also lists of Cetatea Alba Jews who had converted to Orthodox Christianity, and of Jews (including baptised Jews) who resided in Cetatea Alba county (1943); of Jews wanted by the police for escaping from ghettos and camps in Golta county (Transnistria) (1943); of Romanian Jews who had emigrated to Palestine in 1939-41; who had received a return visa to Romania at the Romanian general consulate in Berlin; who had been included in the territorial register of Hunedoara [a city and county in central Romania]; who had emigrated to countries other than Palestine (1943); etc.
- Administrative/biographical history:
- From July 1941 through August 1944, the German-Romanian-occupied territory of the Izmail region was part of the Governorate of Bessarabia. Three new administrative-territorial units were formed in this territory – counties centred on the cities of Izmail, Chilia, and Chetatia-Albe, with county police departments operating therein. County police departments were under the jurisdiction of the Romanian Ministry of Internal Affairs, and answered directly to the Kishinev Area Police Inspectorate.
