Good morning!
A relative was married in Odessa in 1885, then divorced in Paris, France, in 1889. The divorce was recorded in the metrical books back in Odessa, with a note indicating that a messenger had brought the news from Paris.
Having marginal knowledge of French records and very little idea of how Jewish divorces worked across international lines in the 1880s, I could use a little help: would the divorce have been recorded in Paris records as well? If so, how would I request or obtain that record? I'm curious to see if it has any additional details that could prove helpful.
Many thanks for the guidance!
