Family books (''Familienbücher, Familienrodel'') and citizens' books (''Bürgerbücher, Bürgerrodel'') were kept by some communities as early as the 1700s, and were widespread in German areas in the 1820s. They were kept by the local priest to keep track of all citizens (''Bürger'') of the parish regardless of residence. Some parish offices created non-citizen resident (''Beisass, Niedersass'') family books as well. | Family books (''Familienbücher, Familienrodel'') and citizens' books (''Bürgerbücher, Bürgerrodel'') were kept by some communities as early as the 1700s, and were widespread in German areas in the 1820s.
