Ungarn: Volkszählung aller Bürger, 1869
The 1869 Census is a “people” census, attempting to enumerate all individuals of all religions, regardless of property ownership. The Census was created by the Hungarian Government. The broad scope of the census makes it particularly valuable for genealogical research. The census was mainly recorded in the Magyar (Hungarian) language, though census records from many areas may also include other languages such as Slovak. This database includes only extracted Jewish entries.
