  Subject: [HN] Words in German Records


  Can someone possibly help me translate three German words?

  Standesamtlich   ---  (getraut) Married in a civil wedding   -
Standesamt - is the hall of records, births, weddings, funerals.
Standesamtlich is having something done there in those three areas.  If you
want to be legally married you have to have a standesamtiche Hochzeit.  You
can have a church service but that is for show only, it is not legal.
  Begraben   ---   Bury-burial-funeral - begraben actually means buried.
Funeral is Beerdigung.

  Getauft   ---   Baptized getauft - can be christened as well as baptized.

  Also, this sign in German genealogy?

  o-o-  sign of separated rings-Illegitimate union

  ausserehelich?  --- 


  Not sure of the blank one.


  Many thanks for your time and trouble!
  Maureen
