• HBF XV/VI inv.č. 146 Táborský Pacov (P); folio: 3

Other families may be recorded in nearby towns.

Jewish Vital Records:

The Czech Archives contain a number of record books for Pacov in Fond 1073 (now Fond 167). Digitized records include (N = births; O = marriages; Z = deaths; (i) = indexed). These were on Badatelna.eu, but the archive has since transferred them to VadeMeCum. This means that all references to documents on Badetelna are currently broken in the referenced profiles.
