Peyton Hall, 18, fell from the fifth-story balcony at a campus student housing apartment complex early Sunday morning. Although the Stuttgart archive attributes this record to Sulzburg , the entries do not correspond to the civil register copy maintained by the Sulzburg pastor. Date of circumcision The name of a stillborn child, or one who had died within the first ten days of life, usually was not listed.
At different times, the same person may have been recorded either as Levi or as Levy. The same is true of Cohn, Cohen, and Kahn; Schnaddicher and Schnaittacher, and Buttenwieser and Buddewiser are used interchangeably.

What is Extension?
In addition to the original registers kept by the rabbis, a second copy, kept by the local pastor of the dominant local church, commonly existed. These were copied, usually once a year, from the rabbi’s original. Many of the second copies kept by pastors still exist. Frequently, the clergy possessed superior penmanship, at least during the first half of the century.
The recording of some specific information was prescribed by the authorities. Separate ledger style record books extending over many years were kept by type of event. In contrast to records in journal style, many jurisdictions preferred or prescribed that civil records be kept in ledger style. Figure 3, shown on the next page, is an example of a ledger record. Quick Search provides a single interface for searching the library catalog (books, e-books, media, special collections, etc.), digital collections, and several key databases including full-text journal articles, article citations, book chapters, and more.

Sometimes a pastor would alter a Jewish-sounding given name to a more German form in his copy. Mostly, however, the column categories and their order are somewhat idiosyncratic, reflecting local customs and the record keepers’ preferences. Family and given names of the principal person and the actual date of the event always appear, but not necessarily in a consistent order.
Sometimes the old and new names alliterated, but often they did not. Find rare books, photographs, manuscripts, university records, and more. The enrollment office handles undergraduate admissions while the university's graduate programs oversee their own admissions.
Civil records written in journal style sometimes are organized by year; a section for births is followed by one each for marriages and deaths. Typically, at the end of a volume, the author of the records created alphabetical indexes of births, marriages, and deaths by page and/or item number. Depending on how well the rabbi did know German, the initial death record also may have been written in Hebrew, with the date given in both Hebrew and Gregorian notation.
Extant Jewish civil records typically cover the period 1780 to 1876. After 1876, civil records were no longer kept separately by religion but became the responsibility of the state authorities. Depending on the jurisdiction, some headings were compulsory, while others were optional.

The earliest civil records for Jews of southern Germany appear towards the end of the 18th century. Prior to this time, only tax records, property lists, and court records documented the presence of individual Jews. Jewish family books exist for the first half of the 19th century. Separate Jewish civil records were kept up to about 1876. After that time, vital records for Gentiles and Jews were kept jointly. Although most original Jewish civil records from the 19th century appear lost, microfilmed copies of many of them survived in the Leipzig and Gatermann films.
Unfortunately, not all public records can be categorized clearly, and not all are easily legible. At the beginning of the 19th century especially, some rabbis were only partially literate in German. Some dates are given in Gregorian form, others are written in Hebrew letters, and some appear as the name of the Torah portion recited on the Sabbath following the event recorded.
