Austria Other Vital Records Index

In Austria, church records form the backbone of genealogical research, but numerous “other” sources also contain vital information. Guild rosters, military conscription rolls, and citizenship applications (Heimatrollen) often list birthplaces, parents’ names, and occupations. Nobility records and estate inventories can provide lineage data for both aristocratic and common families. School registers and local chronicles (Heimatbücher) may also include life events and familial connections. These alternative resources are crucial for bridging gaps in civil or parish documentation, especially in regions affected by border changes or war.
