Both the Catholic and Lutheran finding aids are organized alphabetically according to the Cyrillic alphabet. If you don’t know the name of the parish in Russian, please refer to Locating the Town with Websites and Gazetteers. The name of the parish/colony will appear first, followed by alternate names in parenthesis and then the name of the uyezd. For example, the entry for the Catholic colony of Mariental appears as follows: '''Мариенталь (Тонкошуровка, Советское), с., Новоузенский уезд'''. In English, this would read: Mariental (Tonkoshurovka, Sovetskoye), Novouzensk uyezd. Clicking on the entry brings up a chart with three columns. The first column, '''Год''', or year, records information regarding the years of record coverage. The next column, '''Номер описи''', lists the opis number. The final column '''Номер ед.хр.''' is the storage unit number. This information can be used to contact or visit the archive to retrieve the desired record. | Both the Catholic and Lutheran finding aids are organized alphabetically according to the Cyrillic alphabet.
