United States census records and arriving passenger lists often simply list the place of birth or origin as "Austria" meaning the Austrian Empire or Austria-Hungary. Careful research is needed to pinpoint the province and city/town. | |||
To view a map showing the Austrian Empire and Austria-Hungary with the associated provinces, click [https://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/images/3/35/Austrian_Provinces.jpg here]. | |||
Jewish Research resources on the FamilySearch Wiki are organized primarily by the present-day country, and not by the former designations. If possible, determine the city/town of origin and then search under its present-day country. | |||
