Were these a certificate of racial identity of a family?
Hi Nuno, I cannot get your link to open.
As always, please post some pics direct onto the forum from the auction, otherwise the thread will die in the future.
It sounds like the item is as you describe.
Cheers, Ade.

Not strictly, although of course the documentation of anybody's ancestry and offspring played an important role in Nazi society. (The actual document proving a person's "Aryan" ancestry was the Ahnenpass.)
Familienstammbücher (familiy registers) were formally introduced in 1875 and they are still very much in use today. They are issued by registry offices on the day of the civil wedding ceremony (if requested by the newlywed couple; while they are not a requirement, they are very common and kept by almost all families).
A Familienstammbuch contains official entries about the relevant personal data of the married couple, their parents and their children.
Such data includes, for example, the names, birthdates and civil wedding date of the couple, an attested transcription of the certificate for the couple's church wedding, names and birthdates of the children with attested transcriptions of their birth- and baptism certificates, transcriptions of death certificates etc.
[The Ahnenpass contained information of a very similiar nature, but because of its purpose, this data referred to the holder and his ancestors. (As far back as five generations, if possible.)]
