- Scope and content:
- The collection contains indexes and registers from 1853-61 of the Imperial and Royal County Office (Kreisamt) of Sibiu. Indexes are arranged alphabetically by name of individual or organisation and in some cases by topic, and in approximate chronological order. As such, one can typically find relevant entries 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 fuller summaries and often give the opening date of the case and the date and a short description of the resolution. In some cases, the documents may be preserved and can be requested using the document numbers recorded in the registers and indexes, although not all documents are still extant. There are also indexes for circulars and various orders (1852-56), a register of recruits (1861) and registers and indexes for local offices: Sibiu (1853-54), Orlat (1856-60), Cisnădie (1853-54) and Săliște (1851-54).
