'''Death Records in the City Archive of Leipzig'''
Since 1595 the death records of the city of Leipzig were not recorded as usual by the Church but were written down by the city council's office. This office issued burial certificates which the gravedigger needed. After the burial the certificate was returned and&nbsp;collected in the so called Leichenbuch. Since 1846 the burial certificates have been arranged alphabetically.
The books are located at the City Archive in Leipzig with the following archival registration numbers:
'''1.2.1.4 Leichenschreiberei'''
1.2.1.4.1 business records
1.2.1.4.1.1 city council death record books 1595-1875
1.2.1.4.1.2 burial certificates 1846-1875
1.2.1.4.1.3 burial books of gravediggers 1690-1879
1.2.1.4.1.4 books of the graves at the Johannis cemetery 1680-1875
1.2.1.4.1.5 various registers and indexes
