Bavaria Civil Registration

Back to Bayern (Bavaria) – Königreich (kingdom) Page►

Civil registration was established in Bavaria January 1, 1876. In the left areas of the Rhine we find civil registration as early as 1798. Civil registration is part of the local administration. All births, marriages and deaths were registered in books. The civil registration offices replaced the parish registrations.

Here is a link to some civil registration offices online
