Confession Lists of the Dmitrievskaya Church of 1782 as a Source on the Demography of the Votkinsk Region, Partially Replacing the Lost IV Revision

The work publishes the Confession Lists of the Dmitrievskaya Church of 1782 for the Votkinsk Plant and the Votkinsk District.At present, the data of the III and V revisions have been published, which have become a valuable source not only for genealogical research, but also for the demography of the region.Since the IV revision is considered lost, these confession lists partially replace its data, which is especially valuable for assessing the demographic losses of the region after the Pugachev Rebellion.The source is stored in the State Archives of the Kirov Region, collection 237, inventory 79, file 332, "Confession lists of parishioners of the Votkinsk state-owned plant, Dmitrievskaya Church".The materials consist of two parts: the first -residents of the Votkinsk plant, the second -residents of nearby villages.In total, data is provided for 472 families consisting of 2,672 males and 2,700 females.Unlike the Revision Tales, the confession list does not contain data on Old Believers and Muslims, for which it is necessary to use other sources.
