These marriage records were probably recorded among the civil records much later than when the Jewish ceremony took place. Perhaps there was some decree about this time coercing all Jews to record their marriages? Many births were considered illegitimate in the civil registers because the parents had not registered the marriage with civil authorities.

Translation of a marriage record (provided by Prof. Gyemant) - great great grandparents of Bruce Reisch, parents of Leiser Littman Schachter:

  • 1. 1874 December 20, No. 39 - Marriage of Froim Schaechter from Radauti, son of Aron Itzig and Sure Schachter, from Okup, both deceased, merchant, Jewish, 54 years old, with Chaje Sure Weismann, daughter of Schloime and Zepre Weissmann from Brody, residents in Radauti, without profession, Jewish, 44 years old. Residence: Radauti, House No. 1205. Publications of the marriage on Nov. 28, Dec. 5 and 12, 1874. Rabbi: Hersch Schapira. Witnesses: Mendel Saldinger, ritual butcher in Radauti, Iczhok Stenzler from Radauti.
