Sali Handler's Birth Record

As I noted in a previous post about Regina Handler, I have several images of records from Erdevik, Serbia, and Ilok, Croatia. These communities were both part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 19th and early 20th centuries and part of Yugoslavia for a good part of the 20th century - see Mappy Monday for details.

The following record is a collection of Jewish births from the Ilok, Croatia, Office of the Registrar (according to the Hungarian Databases at JewishGen).

There are five Handler births listed on this birth register and they "belong" to two different, yet related, families. This record is not an original source since the births are recorded in order by family; they must have been copied from other records. The births range in date from March 1849 to November 1854, but this is likely the closest I'm going to get to determining birth information for these relatives of my husband.


Croatia, Office of the registrar, Ilok, Birth Record [or Hungarian Jewish Births?], page 2, numbers 35-39, birth records for Leopold Händler, Fani Händler, Sali Händler, Leopold Händler, and Philip Händler (1849-1854).

The first three births are for children of Herman Händler and Hani Stern. They lived in Szot, Szerem, Hungary (now in Serbia). The next two births are for children of Adolf Händler and Katy Fuchs who lived in Lyuba, Szerem, Hungary (now in Croatia). Herman and Adolf were brothers; sons of Leopold Händler, who presumably died in late 1848 or early 1849 since both Herman and Adolf named a son Leopold.
