In 1814, the Jews were granted civic equality and in 1849 they
received full rights of citizenship. These two events led to
more and more Jews wanting to live in Denmark. The numbers
reached about 3,500 Jews by the mid 1800's and about 6,000 by
the early part of the 1900's. Until the end of the 1700's
hundreds the Jewish community was strictly orthodox, then in the
early 1800's Reform Judaism was introduced. In the collection of
the Family History Library are the records of the Mosaic
Congregation of Copenhagen (Film numbers 44,590-44,595). These
records cover the time from 1693-1953. Included are the births,
marriages and deaths. Below is the 12 August 1813 marriage of
Aron Philip to Hanne Moses Cantor. These records were
microfilmed in 1950, so the quality is not the highest of
quality. However, many of these records have now been indexed at
www.familysearch.org. They are included as part of the Denmark,
Marriages, 1635-1916 database. When that same marriage is search
for here, the following is the result.
