With the declaration of war against Germany in September 1939, the French authorities started confiscating goods belonging to now enemy citizens and companies. With the capitulation of France in June 1940, these confiscations had to be reversed, and the dataset contains that list of demands. Original documents now held at the Archives Nationales d'Outre Mer - Mairie d'Aix-en-Provence, compiled from February 1941 to February 1942.
Multiple datasets generated from the source material, including transcriptions of person entries (names, dates of birth and death where available, profession and often location, remarks and operating unit) and structured person instance data derived from them are provided. Key historic person instance information (appearances in documents), serialized as JSON according to a formal schema is available, together with the JSON Schema itself. This is intended for use by external applications, and can also be searched interactively using a DPCL presentation website (see below) which explains the datasets further. In contrast to transcription data, which represents the printed and hand-written source material, and is often organized inconsistently, the historic person instance data provided here enables reliable searching across multiple archival sources. The historic person instance JSON is lightweight to enable scalability across large numbers of sub-collections/archives: it does not contain all of the information sometimes transcribed, such as remarks and military operating unit. However it does provide IIIF canvas IDs, connecting the person instance to the page in the source document where it originally occurred.
Where annotations can be generated from transcriptions they are provided as Web Annotation Data Model (WADM) annotation collections serialized as JSON, which are linked to source documents via PIDs. The annotation data can be used independently with the IIIF service provided here, to connect person instances interactively to their occurrence in the source documents. Provided principally for analysis preservation and verification purposes, the transcription data is less suitable for automated searching than the historic person instance JSON (above).
These datasets are also deposited in the Zenodo global catch-all repository as record DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7064971,

With the declaration of war against Germany in September 1939, the French authorities started confiscating goods belonging to now enemy citizens and companies. The dataset contains several documents with information about those confiscations. Original records now held at the Archives Nationales d'Outre Mer - Mairie d'Aix-en-Provence, were compiled in the first months of the Second World War until June of 1940.

The attached datasets contain the lists of the French Electorate by October 1946 in French Indochina. The lists were created to determine the eligible voters for the constitutional referendum on the 13th of October 1946. The constitution of the Fourth French Republic. Original records are now held at the Archives Nationales d’Outre Mer - Mairie d’Aix-en-Provence.
