For obtaining birth certificate from Beočin you will need to contact the municipal office . There are some documents you will need to provide , because official *birth certificate*  is issued only to direct descendants, due to privacy laws:

Mesna kancelarija Beočin

STOJANA VUKOSAVLJEVIĆA BB

21300 Beočin

Serbia

tel.  + 381 21 871-455

Alternatively, you can look for the church vital records that were kept in state archives and have been microfilmed. These can only be researched in the archives themselves, and you will need to contact the archive that covers the region Beočin belongs to. You will need to contact the archive in Novi Sad:

ISTORIJSKI ARHIV GRADA NOVOG SADA

Tvrđava 7

21131 Petrovaradin.

Another option, because all church vital records in Serbia have been returned to its central authors, would be to contact the church authorities and ask about access and possibilities of obtaining certificate of birth and baptism from them. As this happened recently (last year) , I have not heard back from anyone if they were able to get information from church or not.For Beočin records, try here

Contacting any/all of the above  in English and via email will probably get you nowhere.

For Temerin records there is another way to do your research - Roman Catholic church here in Hungary where I live has put online the complete vital records for the Kalocsa diocese that covered most of what is today Vojvodina, and Temerin parish books are available. There are also other records in this collection - school records, heritage books..

If you know your ancestors belonged to Roman Catholic Church, that is the best archive available.

I will be researching the Kalocsa e-archive ...in about two months time, both for my own ancestors and a couple of other people. The annual fee  you have to pay for accessing these records is not very  high, 60 euros, and for that money you can browse the complete archive for a year and download 400 images.  If you decide to become a registered  SGS member I will look up your ancestors too.

 

Thanks for the reply... the last two links are down?

 

Yeah the site is down  right now - was fine yesterday when  I posted - probably technical. As we are approaching major national holiday in Hungary  on Thursday, hopefully someone will fix it before that...unlike the elevator in my building last year...it was a long weekend indeed  ))

I will post in the Vojvodina forum here on SGS the listing of the parishes in  separate thread.
