Germany Saxony (Sachsen) Genealogy Archives and Libraries

State archives[edit | edit source]

Duplicate records from some parishes are in the state archives. Many of these records have been microfilmed and are available at the Family History Library. However, for records that are not microfilmed, you can sometimes write to the state archives to request searches of the duplicates. For more information, see Germany Archives and Libraries.

Referral list for researchers.

Central Church Archives[edit | edit source]

In a few parts of Germany, church records or duplicates have been gathered from the local parishes into central archives. Some gaps in the church records of local parishes could be filled using these records. Church archives are often unable to handle genealogical requests, but they can determine whether they have specific records you need, or they may recommend a researcher who can search the records for you.

-*[[Media:Localities.pdf|'''Pdf Archive Inventory''']]: "Part 1 of 2: Church records in Archives" - is an inventory of localities and the location or archive where their records should be found. The sixth column, '''"Archives"''', gives a number. To find the name and contact information, look up that number in the second column of this .pdf:   [[Media:Archive_Add_.pdf|'''Part 2: Archive Addresses.''']]  It is not clear how up-to-date this inventory is.

-Some archives offer searches for a fee. Archives might be unable to handle genealogical requests, but they can determine whether they have specific records you need, sometimes perform very brief research, such as just one record, or they may recommend a researcher who can search the records for you. Archivists are required to speak English. <br>
-====Email====
-*You can  e-mail archives and ask whether they have records for a parish. Also, you should inquire whether they provide research services and what their fees are. '''You can communicate with the archives in English.'''
