These records are in [[Turkish Genealogical Word List|Ottoman Turkish]] (Turkish in [[Arabic Genealogical Word List|Arabic]] script) except for seven books of the Ashkenazi community in Jerusalem, which are in Hebrew. The collection consists of 7 types of registers: preliminary registers; basic registers; early population registers; registers of births, marriages, divorces and changes of address; registers of men of military age; registers of foreigners; and [[Lebanon Mukhtar Records|Mukhtars]]' registers. Registers are arranged into 10 districts, each including cities (divided into neighborhoods) and villages in present day Palestine, [[Israel Genealogy|Israel]], and parts of [[Jordan Genealogy|Jordan]] and [[Egypt Genealogy|Egypt]]. Registration within each locality is according to religious affiliation. The collection also includes a catalog in English, created by the Israel State Archives (the current owners of the archives), which includes general background information about the registers, a locality index and detailed descriptions of the contents of each register. | These records are in [[Turkish Genealogical Word List|Ottoman Turkish]] (Turkish in [[Arabic Genealogical Word List|Arabic]] script) except for seven books of the Ashkenazi community in Jerusalem, which are in Hebrew.
