Hi
My paternal GGF Hersh Meier Wolf from Czernowitz married Zlate Perlstein (Bernstein) from Washkautz in a traditional Jewish Ceremony. When their children were born (among them my GF Yudl Leib -Leon) they were registered by the Austrian authorities as follows: my GF - Leon Perlstein "unehlich" Wolf - which enabled him (and his descendants) to wear the family name Wolf. On the other hand my maternal GGF - Jacob Nukhemovski (borm in Byalistok, Russia at that time) who escaped to Horodenka Galitzia (part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire at that time) and married Beile Ruhm - registered their 5 sons (among them my GF Isidor-Israel) under the family name - Ruhm, as they too were married according to the traditional Jewish ceremony (the Ruhms are "Cohanim") .

נושא: Re: [Cz-L] No father listed on birth records
Early in the 20th century some couples still were not married civilly, only religiously.
Apparently, if the father was not registered as the husband, the child was registered with the mother's maiden name. There is at least one instance of this happening with the six first cousins of my father who like him were born in Vashkovitz (Vashkivtsi), but had their mother Malkah's maiden name Lifshitz, though the father was Shalom Wiznitzer.
