===Slovakia Church Records=== | |||
'''Determine the religion of an ancestor''' Until the 1900s, vital records were kept by church parishes or Jewish congregations. The records of different religions were kept separately. If you are not sure of your ancestor's religion, start by searching Roman-Catholic records. Catholicism was the dominant religion in the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. Not every village in Slovakia had its own parish. Often, several smaller villages belonged to one parish. Use [[Slovakia Gazetteers|gazetteer]] to determine the location of the parish or synagogue where records were kept. | |||
