Dear all,
For those of you working on families - particularly of the noble and bureaucratic classes - in St. Petersburg before the revolution, there's an important new resource that shouldn't be overlooked. One dedicated researcher on VGD has indexed 60,000+ metrical book entries which can be accessed at:
https://forum.vgd.ru/3866/
It's only a drop in the ocean, but a significant one. I've already located several items, particularly late 19th / early 20th century marriages, which I hadn't been able to find before.
All best wishes,
Kelsey
