Reference Question

Liladhar,

You might want to try looking at some of the following. Even when discussing a later time period, there is often reference made to earlier periods as a means of comparison.  I did not check any of the national census publications of the post-war period [e.g. Itorig Vsesoiuznoi perepisi naseleniia 1959 goda. 16v.-these could have marriage registration data]. Best, June

Subject: [SEELANGS] Reference Question

Hello,

Could someone please point me to the resource in Russian or other languages

that provides us with the approximate number of unmarried women in the USSR

in the post WW II period (1945-1050) and the other question is the number of

married women who lost their husbands in the WW II.

Many thanks,

Liladhar Pendse
