The local archives in Rexingen contain records with valuable information on the situation of Jewish and Christian families. For example, there are records of weddings, of the personal assets brought into the marriage by each partner, last wills, the manner in which inheritance was divided after a death, etc. These handwritten records, mainly from the nineteenth century, have been transcribed and are almost all available in legible form. We help those entitled to access them in their search for family records.
