Thessaloniki (1917–1941): A First Family Register Soon Available Online in REGIE

Following the publication of the Birth Registers (2022/P1 – 10,265 entries) and the Marriage Registers (2022/P2 – 10,011 entries), 2026 starts strongly with the upcoming published online - very soon - in REGIE database ↗, of the first recovered Family Registers of the Jewish Community of Thessaloniki after World War II.  

This is the Register for the letter  נ  (Nun ou Noun), also known as 13B Register.

This register lists 5,723 people whose family name begins with the letter נ (Nun or Noun), the Hebrew letter corresponding to names that start with the letter N when written in Latin characters. In this register, you will also find the names and first names of spouses, children, and fathers.
 

These are data from the continuous census of families between 1917 and 1941, the year the Nazis arrived.

Each family is identified by:

1. The volume number in which it appears;
2. The family number (internal to the volume);
3. The page number (internal to the volume).

For the time, this is a detailed identification of families, now allowing us to locate the members of each family in the broadest sense, as male children generally "inherit" the same family number, suffixed by /2, /3, /b, etc. 

The top 10 surnames in these families are: NAHMIAS (1,726), NAAR (530), NISIM (510), NAHMAN (477), NEHAMA (475), NAHUM (368), NADJARI (366), NEFUSI (301), NATAN (182), and NAVARO (74). 

We strongly recommend reading the présentation des Registres de la Communauté Juive de Salonique to fully understand the richness of these Registers—Births, Marriages, and now Families—and the opportunities provided by their current digitization in the REGIE database.

With the online release of this Family Register, a total of 25,999 entries will  - very soon - be available for your research.

We will continue publishing the remaining 6 recovered Family Registers in the coming months.

Access to the REGIE database is reserved for members who are up to date with their dues.
