==Revision Lists (Census or Taxation lists)
*Revision Lists are taxation records that look similar to a census.
*In 1718, Tsar Peter the Great Instituted a head tax, also known as the “soul” tax. In 1719, revision lists, or enumerations of the
taxable population began.
*There were ten revisions taken sporadically between 1719 and 1858. The dates of the ten revisions can be found below. Revisions could take years to complete. The Ten Revisions:
**1st 1719-1724
**2nd 1743-1747
**3rd 1761-1767
**4th 1781-1782
**5th 1794-1795/1808
**6th 1811 (incomplete)
**7th 1815-1818/1826
**8th 1833-1835
**9th 1850-1851
**10th 1857-1858/1859
&Revision lists are an important resource because they list household/family groupings complete with names, relationships, and ages. They can be used to track a family throughout time and estimate vital event dates.
*Revision lists were primarily recorded in Russian and many have not yet been indexed. For help with reading a revision list, see:
