This record lists compiled for the purpose of registering proven nobility. The books were compiled by the nobility to establish their social status and confirm their privileges.  Catherine the Great required the compilation of lineage books to qualify for membership in the local assembly of noble deputies established in 1785.  A copy was sent into St. Petersburg to officially register the lineage. These records are from 1785-1918. These records include a family genealogical table, record of awards and recognition. The central copy is located in the Russian State Historical Archive in St. Petersburg. Local copies are found in state archives.
