Court Records

Because they can be difficult to use, search court records after other records. They can give:

• Family relationships.
• Places of residence.
• Occupations.
• Descriptions of individuals.
• Family history information.

Court records are difficult to use because:

• There are many records.
• They are not well indexed.
• Court names and jurisdictions change.
• They use many legal terms and abbreviations.

Access the FamilySearch Catalog and do a place search for Russia. Look for Russia Court Records.
