Sippenkartei Jerichow II
In the Magdeburg Archives you can find a rather interesting and possibly very helpful source. The Sippenkartei (family card index) from the region of Jerichow II for the years 1934-45 can now be found at Magdeburg.

The Sippenamt (Office of family registers) in Genthin prior to World War II, made an index of the families in this Kreis (county). They evaluated most of the church registers in that area to make these registers. Only recently were these records located in Genthin and now are stored and available for research here:

Freiherr-vom-Stein-Str. 47 39108 Magdeburg Fax 0391/506659-96 E-Mail: [mailto:archiv.magdeburg@ekmd.de archiv.magdeburg@ekmd.de]

For people who have ancestry in this county, this can be a valuable source in finding details of your family.
