Map Guide To Swiss Parish Registers, Volume 2: Bern II

Inhaltsangabe

The 'Map Guide to Swiss Parish Registers - Volume 2 - Bern II' is the second of two volumes dedicated to Canton Bern. The first volume covers the rest of historic Canton Bern. Unlike American genealogical research, which typically focuses on civil registrations, European research often revolves around ecclesiastical jurisdictions. In 18th and 19th century Switzerland, one must search parish registers for vital records. This volume clearly outlines the historic boundaries of Swiss cantons and amtsbezirke, providing listings for both Catholic and Protestant parishes, along with record availability, access points, contact information, and covered municipalities, making Swiss genealogy research more manageable.
