Emigration records (''documente emigrare'') were kept in Romania starting in 1875. The records include lists of emigrants to America, other areas of Europe, and other parts of the world. Records were also kept of immigrants from Europe. These records can be used to determine the place of origin of an immigrant ancestor who came from Romania. Also, Romanians can use the records to find family members on collateral lines who left Romania. | |||
