A Familienbuch (German, literally "Family-book") was a genealogical summary that was issued by the local civil registry upon marriage and contained data on birth, marriage and death of the couple as well as the birth data of any children stemming for this marriage.
Since January 1, 2009 Familienbücher are no longer issued.
