For some reason I didn't get a notification of your response.

Bendery is now known as Bender or Tighina

Some records are on family search, I don't know if you have already looked here. You may have to view at a LDS family history centre as some are only available on microfilm.

There may be something useful for general research here:

Thank you, it looks as though I have been through family search.

The general research is very informative thank you.

Thank you. I should have said that my grandmother was Roman Catholic.

Europe / How to find a birth certificate from Bessarabia
« on: Monday 04 August 25 20:54 BST (UK)  »
Hello, my grandmother was born in 1908 in Bendery, Bessarabia. I am trying to obtain a birth certificate for her. I have used google translate on the National Archive of the Republic of Moldova but drawn a blank. I also started accessing church records of Moldova but the writing is in Cyrillic so struggling.

Not sure if there is an easier way to find out. She was a displaced person during World War 2 and ended up in Germany - I have found documents on Arolsen Archives which state no birth certificate with her.

Many thanks
