| An index
to the 1835 Census for Molotschna has been prepared by the
Manitoba Mennonite Historical Society is online. In addition,
a fully translated copy of the census was also prepared by them
and is available in the MHSA Library. |
Prepared March 2002 by Tim Janzen
The document containing the 1835 Molotschna Colony Census has recently
been microfilmed for a second time by the California Mennonite Historical
Society. This document is found in the Peter Braun Collection in Fund
89, File 357 at the Odessa Archives in Odessa, Ukraine and is written
in Russian. This document was previously microfilmed, but the newer
microfilm is of significantly superior quality since it was microfilmed
using a newer microfilm camera with higher quality optics than the one
used in making the older microfilm.
To assist researchers using the newer (as well as the older) microfilm
of this census I have created two tables that can serve as indexes to
finding the census data for each village on the 1835 Molotschna Colony
Census microfilm. An index to the villages appears at the beginning
of the microfilm. I translated that index and then created two tables
containing the information in the index, one a table organized by page
number and the other a table in which the village names are listed alphabetically.
The page number given in the tables is the page number given in the
original document and the frame number given in the tables is the number
of the frame on the new microfilm where the information is located.
Copies of this new microfilm of the census are available at the following
archives:
- Asuncion and Fernheim Colony Archives, Paraguay
- American Historical Society of Germans from Russia, Lincoln, Nebraska
- Center for Mennonite Brethren Studies in Fresno, California
- Center for Mennonite Brethren Studies, Tabor College, Hillsboro,
