Abstract:
This article presents an overview of documents of state regional archives (the Central State Archive of the City of Moscow and the Central State Archive of the Moscow Region) which may be a source about life and activity of new martyrs and confessors of the Russian Orthodox Church of the 20th century — active figures in the temperance movement of the Moscow diocese. The performed search for new biographical data about holy martyrs-confessors of sobriety of Moscow diocese allows us to conclude that the parish and consistorial church documentation of the late 19th — early 20th centuries, stored in the funds of the Central State Archive of the City of Moscow, has a significant information potential. First of all, it is necessary to note such a type of church sources as parish registers and clergy lists containing information about the clergy and church servants and members of their families. Additional information on the genealogy of the Orthodox clergy of the pre-Soviet period can also be found in census tales, confessional lists and marriage searches. In the funds of the regional archives of the Soviet period, the most informative sources on the subject are the service records of the clergy and church servants of the 1920s–1930s and documents of the Soviet judiciaries established after the October revolution. The publication will help everyone who studies the biographies of the martyrs and confessors of Russia and is interested in obtaining new information about their lives.
