The following table contains census information about Mennonite foreigners who arrived in the Molochansk District, Berdyansk Uyezd, Tavrichesk Gubernia. The data was compiled on 4
November 1850. It appears that all of the newly arrived Mennonites had arrived from Prussia in
1849 but were not officially added to the Molotschna colony until after the 9th national census of 1850. The following table is an amalgamation of separate entries in the original file, and the numbering is created for the purposes of this table. The last column is a cross-reference to the GRANDMA CD-ROM Database, Vol. 3, produced by the California Mennonite Historical Society, Fresno, CA.
The GRANDMA numbers refer to the GRANDMA Vol. 3 database produced by the California Mennonite Historical Society.
