Kaunas Gubernia Vital Records

|
January 2012: The Kaunas Gubernia Vital Records Project has been incorporated into the relevant District Research Group. The vast majority of the records available for translation have been completed or are in the process of being completed.
The Kaunas (Kovne) Gubernia Vital Records Project is chartered with obtaining all the filmed and non-filmed 19th century and early 20th century vital records for the Lithuanian-Jewish Communities in the former Kaunas Gubernia of the Russian Empire.
We access records, translate and database them, and distribute the data to our contributors in Excel format. As part of LitvakSIG’s overall mission, our data is made publicly available in the LitvakSIG All Lithuania Database (ALD) eighteen months from when contributors first get access, but only via the web interface and not in Excel format—that remains a unique benefit for our contributors.
Vital Records exist for the following shtetls in Kaunas Gubernia:

Some nearby shtetls’ vital records may be consolidated into these records so if you don’t see your primary shtetl of interest in this list, consider contributing to the nearest shtetl which is represented.
A complete inventory of the specific available records for each shtetl is available on the LitvakSIG Members Website. If you are not a dues-paying member of LitvakSIG, you can learn more about joining LitvakSIG on the Join LitvakSIG page of this website.
We hope you will consider becoming a contributor to the Kaunas Gubernia Vital Records Project. The qualification level per shtetl is $100 US. Smaller donations can be made over time to build up to the qualification level. Our aim is to make the contribution a single, cumulative requirement per shtetl, however if a project runs out of funds, it may be required to raise the minimum contribution level for all contributors to continue its mission.
Instructions on how to join LitvakSIG or make a contribution to a vital records project can be found Join LitvakSIG page of our website. If you have questions about Kaunas Gubernia vital records, please contact the Shtetl Vital Records Coordinator in the table above or contact the Kaunas Gubernia Vital Records Coordinator,
