The first ZAGS divisions were established in Moscow in December 1917 under local government agencies. The archive holds records of vital statistics for the last seventy-five years for the city of Moscow and parts of Moscow Oblast that were part of the city during various periods. Earlier prerevolutionary parish registers and other related demographic records have been transferred to the Moscow city archives (see TsIAM, D-2; and TsMAM, D-1).
The archive is not open for research purposes. Official inquiries by individuals for needed records may be addressed in writing or in person.
