'''Parish Registers or Metrical Books (''metriki'')'''<br>The majority of these begin in the middle 18th century. Normally, two copies were made, one (a transcript) sent annually to a central ecclesiastical or civil office. The transcript is the copy most likely to have survived the civil disruptions of Russia's past. ''Metriki'' consist of forms filled out annually, filed, and then bound into books. Over time they were filed in any order imaginable. There are gaps in the years indicating that some materials were lost or misplaced. Quite often the records of churches in a district for a single year are bound in the same volume. | '''Parish Registers or Metrical Books (''metriki'')'''<br>The majority of these begin in the middle 18th century.
