I've had a request asking where to navigate for the census information at ahsgr.org. Go to the main page, follow the Products link. On that page there is information about some new census data. If you follow that link it will lead you to page listing what is available for different colonies. There is also a link on that page that will lead you to an alphabetical listing of surnames by village/colony found in the census. One other nice feature is that this list gives you the German name of the village as well as the Russian name. I know we all fumble around trying to remember the Russian names at one time or another - or we simply don't know what it is. New researchers should also not neglect looking at the Odessa website.
