My relatives traveled to Kolozsvar from Stanislau, Galicia in 1893. They had four children there between 1893 and 1900. I have found the birth record in the Romanian state archives for the first child but not the others. Are there any good resources for looking up residents during that period of time?

    @Austro-Hungarian Empire​ I want to refer you to join the Austro-Hungarian Community, where you will find people who know the available records and history. Good Luck with your search! Pam Whicker

    Normally registers are good resources for me.

    You can use Search -> Catalog menu then enter Kolozsvár or Cluj

    Kolozsvár is hungarian name Cluj is romanian. Kolozsvár now part of Romania.

    Till 1895 was church registration so you choose this menu and you should know their religion to choose proper register.

    After 1895 was Civil registration. I don't see any civil registers so you have to look for.
