Hi all, With respect to the existence of a list of debts, where might any of us find a copy of it?  Karen ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] Date: Thursday, September 30, 2010 12:00 am Subject: GER-VOLGA Digest, Vol 5, Issue 351 To: [email protected] > > > Today's Topics: > >    1. 1785 Saratov list of debts (William Pickelhaupt) > > > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > ----- > > Message: 1 > Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2010 12:06:32 -0700 (PDT) > From: William Pickelhaupt <[email protected]> > Subject: [GV] 1785 Saratov list of debts > To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 > > I?took a look at the translated manuscript of the 1798 census at > the AHSGR library and found a very interesting thing: there is a > list from 1785 issued by the Saratov Accounting Office of their > calculation of annual payment due and amount of Treasury debt > for each household in the village.

As mentioned below, these documents are part of the 1798 census translation manuscript, held at the AHSGR library in Lincoln, Nebraska. Call them and tell them what you want and for what village, and they'll make copies for a small charge. Today is the day of their fall board meeting so they'll be busy with that today. Their phone number is on their webpage.   Bill Pickelhaupt --- On Thu, 9/30/10, Karen K <[email protected]> wrote: From: Karen K <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [GV] GER-VOLGA Digest, Vol 5, Issue 351 To: [email protected] Date: Thursday, September 30, 2010, 10:33 PM Hi all, With respect to the existence of a list of debts, where might any of us find a copy of it?  Karen ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] Date: Thursday, September 30, 2010 12:00 am Subject: GER-VOLGA Digest, Vol 5, Issue 351 To: [email protected] > > > Today's Topics: > >    1. 1785 Saratov list of debts (William Pickelhaupt) > > > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > ----- > > Message: 1 > Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2010 12:06:32 -0700 (PDT) > From: William Pickelhaupt <[email protected]> > Subject: [GV] 1785 Saratov list of debts > To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 > > I?took a look at the translated manuscript of the 1798 census at > the AHSGR library and found a very interesting thing: there is a > list from 1785 issued by the Saratov Accounting Office of their > calculation of annual payment due and amount of Treasury debt > for each household in the village.
