Going back to the ''Allgemeine und gebündelte Verwaltung'' one does find other research categories. Depending on the area and time frame one could choose “Landdrostei Aurich” or “Landkreis Aurich” which will list archival material according to the administrations of the day, i.e., Landdrostei Aurich existed from 1823-1885, Landkreis Aurich since 1885. There is also a category “Personenstandsregister” which lists all registers for births, marriages and deaths when civil registration was implemented.

=== Family Research in the city archive Hildesheim  ===
The archive has a variety of genealogical sources appropriate for genealogical research.
'''Civil registration records<br>'''Information gathered by civil authorities started in 1875 in Hildesheim. These records become archival records after a certain time frame and are then stored in the city archive. They are available if one has a reasonable interest in historical or family related issues and time frames. These are:<br>Birth registers older than 110 years<br>Marriage registers older than 80 years<br>Death registers older than 30 years<br>For each year of an event exists a register of names in alphabetical order, however, names then appear in chronological order.
'''City registration records<br>'''The city has registration records from before 1946. These records are freely accessible when 100 years after a person’s birth have passed and after 10 years from a person’s death date. Information will be supplied by the archive.
'''Church registers<br>'''Up to 1875 individual’s birth, marriage, and death were registered by the church. The law ordered duplicates for such records which are available at the archive for the years 1853 through 1874. The researcher is free to browse through them himself. If the information is not available in the duplicate records the researcher should contact
For Catholic records the Bistum Hildesheim and for<br>Evangelical records the individual parishes. There also exists a research center in the Martin-Luther-Kirchengemeinde Nordstadt-Drispenstedt, Peiner Strasse 53, 31137 Hildesheim. Email coordes@martin-luther-kirche.de
'''Jewish records<br>'''The city archive has Jewish records from the years 1808-1815 and 1844-1874.
'''Address books<br>'''They are available for the year 1827 and then again from 1840-1998. They just list the head of household, not entire families.
'''Other sources helpful for family research<br>'''Such records are not listed by names but rather by subject. Further clues about a person can appear in<br>• Urkunden (documents)<br>• Amtsbücher (administrative books)<br>• Akten (briefs)<br>• Nachlässe und Familienpapiere (wills and family papers)<br>• Genealogische und heraldische Sammlungen (genealogical and heraldic collections)
