General Information

The dates designate the examination periods from which we collected data from the Magistrate of the City of Vienna. The figures in brackets refer to the number of married couples and the marriage proceedings conducted by them. With the selection of one of the periods you branch to the individual people.

The list you find on the following page covers all married couples who filed one or more proceedings at the Magistrate of the City of Vienna in the selected period. The entries are sorted alphabetically according to last name and first name of the wife and husband. You find the information on how many litigations the respective couple led in brackets. If a couple led several proceedings, it may be that they are also to be found outside of the period of investigation. The reason for this is that the files of earlier or later legal proceedings were enclosed in a dossier created for a specific couple.
