1801 Census, Chortitza Colony, South Russia

Odessa Archives, Fond 6, Inventory 1, File 67

Extracted by Tim Janzen

This site makes available various versions of a census of the Chortitza Colony in South Russia which was taken on September 1, 1801. The census was compiled under the direction of Peter Siemens who was oberschulz (superintendent) of the Chortitza Colony at that time and was apparently based on information supplied to him by mayors of each of the 9 villages. The census lists the names and ages of 1665 residents of the Chortitza Colony as well as statistical data concerning their possessions. The original document was written in German and may be found on frames 1 to 123 of File #67 of the microfilm of selected files from Odessa Archives, Fund 6, Inventory 1. Additional detailed statistical data about crop production for each head of household is also found on the microfilm in the second half of File #67 but has not been extracted up to this point.

The data from this census is available for review as tables of the original census data for each village (see MHSA site), as a compilation of the entire colony (see below), or as gedcom files which may be downloaded in which the ages of the people mentioned in the census have been converted into approximate years of birth. In the tables of the census data I have attempted to spell names exactly as they appeared in the original document. To search the gedcom files most effectively I suggest researchers import the gedcom files into the Brothers Keeper program and conduct searches using the name codes as found in Grandma database.

Researchers should note that "diana" is universally substituted for "Anna" in this census. As with the 1795 Chortitza Colony census published by B. H. Unruh, stepchildren are designated as such only part of the time and their actual surnames are given only occasionally. Thus researchers will need to interpret the actual census data found in the tables carefully.

I have noted only one definite error in the ages given in the census. At Neuendorf #12 Abraham Friesen's wife Anna's age is given as 3 in the census. It likely should have been entered as 30 as her age is given as 30 in the 1802 Neuendorf census published by B. H. Unruh.

I have placed 2 question marks in the table of the Chortitza village census data in the columns for the number of cattle at households #2 and #3 where the original document is illegible. In reviewing the economic data I discovered that whoever did the addition in the original census made 7 errors in the totals listed at the end of each village. I have put the correct totals in the tables of the census data rather than entering the totals found in the original for these 7 totals. The errors I noted are as follows:

Chortitza

  • 327 sheep listed in the original, but this should be 427

    Neuenburg

  • 11 harrows listed in the original, but this should be 14

    Neuendorf

  • 86 pigs listed in the original, but this should be 96
  • 41 harrows listed in the original, but this should be 39
  • 24 plows listed in the original, but this should be 24 1/2

    Rosenthal

  • 50 pigs listed in the original, but this should be 60
  • 436 cattle listed in the original, but this should be 445

    It is important to note that the census taken September 1, 1801 included only the families and servants of landowners and thus some people living in the Chortitza Colony at that time who were not landowners were not included in this census. Many, if not almost all, of the people not included in the September 1, 1801 census were listed, however, in a separate listing of single people and families who were not landowners which was compiled on April 25, 1801. This list is found on frames 1-7 of File #92. Some of the people found in the April 25, 1801 listing were also included in the larger September 1, 1801 census. Unfortunately, the ages of the people found in the April 25, 1801 listing are usually not given. The April 25, 1801 listing is available both as a table showing the original data and as a gedcom file.
