Local CensusesWhat to do when you are studying a family historyfaced with the lack of basic archival documents - metric records? In this case, you should refer to the materials of the population censuses, which are preserved, as a rule, in all archives.



Local censuses that startedin the 60s of the XIX century. For example, in Kazakhstan, the first censuses were conducted in the late 1860s - early 1870s. in the Semirechenskaya region. In 1877, a one-day population census was conducted in all cities of the Akmola region, in 1882 - in Semipalatinsk. In 1885, conducted a household census of the Cossack population of the Urals region. Local censuses took place in the capital cities (St. Petersburg and Moscow), major provincial and some county-level cities. Later they pass to scientifically organized censuses that were regularly held in Moscow (1871, 1882, 1902, 1912), St. Petersburg (1862, 1863, 1864, 1869, 1881, 1890, 1900, 1910, 1915) and other cities. Almost all local censuses were timed to a specific moment, were implemented in a short time, and some - even within one day.

Completely before the general census was rewrittenOnly the population of Livonian (1881), Courland (1867, 1881) and Estland (1881) provinces. In some provinces only the urban population was rewritten. In total, from 1862 to 1917 on the territory of the Russian Empire was organized approximately 200 local censuses. In some provinces (Astrakhan - in 1873, Akmolinskaya - in 1877, Pskov - in 1870 and 1887 and others), residents were rewritten in all cities. In the years 1863 and 1881, the population of the whole Kurland region was rewritten, and in 1881, - also the Livonian and Estland provinces. Such local censuses were conducted at least 200, but the materials of many of them were not published, and about somebody knows nothing, except the year of the census.
