1932-1933 Mykolayiv (Nikolayev) Region State Archives

1932-1933 MYKOLAIV REGION STATE ARCHIVES: REGISTRY OF DEATHS IN THE MYKOLAIV REGION

Records refer to this timeframe as the “Holocaust”, otherwise known as the Famine Genocide or Holodomor, in Soviet Ukraine. During this period about 25% of the rural Ukrainians perished as a direct result of the Soviet Union artificially creating a famine by exporting almost 2 million ton of grain to Western markets.

There was “…deliberate destruction of  actual birth and death records, as well as the fabrication of false information to cover up information regarding the causes and scale of death in Ukraine. Similar falsifications of official records were widespread.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denial_of_the_Holodomor)  The data included in this blog indicates a variety of causes of death---tuberculosis, “myocarditis”, senility, paralysis, bladder infection, nephritis, “cardiosclerosis”, etc., but non indicate starvation.

The original archival records reflect the following format. For the purpose of the blog, however, I am only including the names of some of the individuals who died, and their month/year of death. These records may have been ones that had been falsified.
