| In older church records the female patronymics took the same form as current female surnames, i.e. in birth records mothers' names were written as Natalia Mikhail''ova'' (not Mikhail''ovna'') and Tatiana Nikola''eva'' (not Nikola''evna''). Generally you must find a marriage record to determine a mother's maiden surname.
