Description:
This grouping contains certificates from the Rabbinical College confirming various ritual duties that they had performed (such as ritual marriages, divorces, and burials). These certificates were requested by individuals so they could be sent to various departments of the Ghetto, including but not limited to Unterstützungsabteilung (Support Department), Abteilung Arbeitseinsatz (Labor Department), Abteilung Standesamt (Department of Registry Office), and Postabteilung (Postal Department). The certificates included the name, date of birth, place of birth, parents names, and address of those involved (usually husband and wife), as well as the name of the person requesting the certificate, and to which department the certificate should be sent.
