- For a more detailed discussion of this topic see the [[Germans from Russia|Germans from Russia]] Wiki page. The following is the single most valuable source for researching German families from Russia:
-Stumpp, Karl. ''The Emigration from Germany to Russia in the Years 1763-1862''. Tübingen, Germany: Stumpp, 1973; reprint 1978. (FHL book 943 W2sk; fiche 6000829; 1978 ed. on film 1,183,529. View-able online at the Family History Library or a FamilySearch Center.). Text in English. The most useful parts of this source for genealogists are the alphabetical lists of German immigrants, which are divided into three sections: Volga region immigrants (pp. 117-165), Mennonites in South Russia and Samara (pp. 167-204), and Black Sea region immigrants (except Mennonites) (pp. 204-497).
-Many online sources for Germans from Russia are found in the Odessa Digital Library:
-*http://www.odessa3.org/
-The German Protestant church [EvangelischeKirche] of Russia was organized into consistories headquartered in St. Petersburg. The Family History Library has microfilmed the 276 volumes of the consistories' church record civil transcripts in the Russian State Historical Archives. These records are from German settlements in Ingermanland (surrounding St. Petersburg), near the Black Sea, and in Bessarabia for the years 1833 to 1900. They are in the Place Search of the FamilySearch Catalog under:
-RUSSIA, [PROVINCE], [TOWN] — CHURCH RECORDS
-German Protestant records are listed [https://familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&placeId=81&query=%2Bkeywords%3AGerman%20%2Bkeywords%3AProtestants here.]

-In addition, several organizations, such as the [http://www.ahsgr.org/ American Historical Society of Germans from Russia] and the [http://www.grhs.org/ Germans from Russia Heritage Society], will help genealogists.
