Status Explanation

Added - The records have been transcribed, reviewed, and added to the IAGL online searchable index

In Review - The records have been transcribed but are being reviewed for accuracy and are expected to be added to the IAGL online searchable index soon

In Progress - One of the IAGL’s volunteers is actively transcribing these records.

Not started - The IAGL has access to the original records but has not transcribed them yet. If you can read Polish or Russian, you can help transcribe these records! Contact us to learn how you can help the IAGL.

No Access - This means that the records do exist but the IAGL currently does not have access to the records in order to transcribe them. In most cases, this means that the IAGL still needs to have these records photographed so they can be archived.

Restricted - The IAGL cannot gain access to or post transcriptions of birth records (or any other records) of individuals who were born less than 100 years ago (in the case of records that originate in Lithuania.) If you would like to search these records, you should contact the archive that holds the original records.

Lost/Status Unknown - Massive amounts of church/civil records in Lithuania were damaged, mostly during WWI and WWII—this is especially true of records from southwest Lithuania. Records with this status are most likely lost indefinitely.


Inventory FAQ

Does “Lost/Status Unknown” mean the records are gone forever?

In most cases, records are labeled as “Lost/Status Unknown” because they are not in the archives where they should be. In most cases, this is because of documented destruction, such as fires in archives or churches, or because of damaged done to churches or other offices. Nevertheless, it is not unheard of records showing up in odd places—basements of archives, attics of private homes, or books that are simply mislabeled. However, this is usually the exception, rather than the rule.

Why are some of the year ranges listed individually instead of as a range?

Our inventory listing generally follows the makeup of the original record books—so you’ll see ranges which those books specifically cover, such as “Births 1900 - 1910.” This is how we transcribe records; each book is transcribed separately (even if there are overlapping years) because the format of record keeping may vary from volume to volume. Additionally, we also try to transcribe records from the best copy available. Sometimes, records were re-filmed (in the case of microfilmed records) and often the second filming offers better reproduction. In this case, we may choose to transcribe from that film and so you may see listings such as “Births 1900 - 1910” and then “Births 1911” and then “Births 1912 - 1920.” In these cases, usually 1911 is by itself because either that particular year was missing from the main source, or because that particular filming was easier to read.

The records I’m looking for are labeled “Not Started.” When will you transcribe them?

All of the transcribers at the IAGL are volunteers, and do transcriptions when they have the time to do so. Therefore, we can’t always provide an estimate on how long it will take us to transcribe a particular location’s records.

Why are locations in Poland included?

Although Poland and Lithuania are today two independent countries, this was not the case in the past. The Suwalki Gubernia included most of southwest Lithuania and what is today Eastern Poland. In the past, there was no border between Poland and Lithuania, and the Deutsche aus Litauen often moved to places such as Suwalki, Wizajny, Augustow, etc., Therefore, we felt it important to include these locations as part of our inventory to transcribe. Particularly the Suwalki Evangelical Church, which was founded in the late 18th century, before many of the Lutheran churches in southwest Lithuania were founded. This means some living nearby in what is today Lithuania, may have traveled to that church for baptisms, marriages, confirmations, and deaths.
