Belarus Death Records Index

Belarus death records are valuable resources for genealogical research, providing crucial information about ancestors' lives and family connections. These records typically contain details such as the deceased's name, date and place of death, age, occupation, and sometimes cause of death. For periods before 1920, death records can be found in the National Historical Archives of Belarus in Minsk and Grodno, while post-1920 records are held in regional and local state archives. Tombstones in Belarus can offer additional insights, often including Hebrew inscriptions and familial relationships. A unique aspect of Belarus death records is the availability of Jewish-specific databases.
