Notariatsakten

Non-PRO German to English Other History Notar
Most of this text is in German, but the author has thrown in some English word here and there. Sometimes he uses "Notariatsakten" and other times he uses "notarial acts" which I don't think is the right translation based on the context. To me, notary register or notary files seem to make more sense. Any ideas?

German:

Kirchliche Institutionen erschienen in den Notariatsakten des Jakob Haas nur selten, die Verwaltung ihrer Grundherrschaften wurde in anderen Schriftquellen dokumentiert.

Im Folgenden soll der Blick von einem Einzelfall auf eine Analyse der Transaktionen, wie sie in den Notariatsakten dokumentiert wurden, gelenkt werden.

And then in English:
Zusammen mit dem Verkauf von 58 agrarischen Gütern oder Gebäuden ohne Bauernhof und ohne Wein bildete der Handel mit agricultural holdings (with or without farmstead) den größten Einzelposten der Landtransaktionen in den notarial acts.

In den notarial acts of Jakob Haas war die Übertragung von Gütern zur Erbleihe eine wichtige Transaktionsform.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

PRO (1): Steffen Walter

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
