The largest database of residents of the territory of Ukraine born between 1650-1920 for years began to operate on the Internet in open access, according to pra.in.ua.

As of June 2017, the base has about 2,5 million people, writes “Historical truth".

The project development plan provides that by the beginning of 2018 the base will grow to 3 million people, and in 2019 - to 4 million.

The program is interactive - users can add their own information to the database or edit existing records. There is also the opportunity to build your own family tree.

The system developed by programmers will daily compare the updates of the project base with each user's pedigree and, if potential links are found, will inform him about it. This functionality will work in July 2017.

Navigation provides the ability to search by last name, date range, region, etc.

Each visitor receives their own profile and the ability to create a pedigree when registering.

At the moment, when forming the base, the following sources were taken into account:

• Metric books and confessional paintings, both Orthodox and Catholic, as well as records of Czech and German colonists;
• Voter voter lists in Western Ukraine regions;
• Sworn lists of residents of Podolia and Volyn for several years (work continues);
• Lists of casualties of the soldiers of the Austro-Hungarian army from Galicia (partially processed, work continues);
• Lists of soldiers of the Russian army in the First World War (partially processed, work continues);
• Lists of Red Army warriors from 1926;
• Lists of soldiers of the Soviet-Finnish war from Ukraine;
• Diocesan records of the Volyn and Podolsk provinces;
• Voevodsky messengers (Volyn, Lviv, Ternopil, Stanislavsky);
• List of prisoners of concentration camps;
• Lists of repressed people (partially processed, work continues);
• Address books of cities of the late 19th - early 20th centuries (partially processed, work in progress);
• Address and Memorial books of the provinces, which covered the territory of modern Ukraine (partially processed, work continues).

Next, the creators of the site plan to expand the source database.

The project team promises that the site will operate in beta testing mode for at least the next two weeks. Therefore, please send all comments and identified problems to the mailbox [email protected].

In addition, they announce that over the next few months, the site will also receive a messaging function and several other useful features.
