SA membership files, Varel (Germany) 

folder 1 

Consists of 43 separate personnel files on members of the Sturmbabteilung (SA) of the Nazi party, from the town of Varel (Friesland), Germany. The files, called"Stammrolle" contain information about a persons membership in the SA, in the Nazi party, their vital statistics, profession, prior military or paramilitary service, and the dates on which they received various ranks in the SA. The files were numbered in sequential and chronological order, based on the date when this form was completed, which could have been at the same time as a person's entry into the SA, or at a much later date. Although the forms were created between 1935 and 1939, they record data--such as about promotion in rank--up through 1942.
