Notes concerning the translations and the information in the documents:

1) Old Calendar Date: Russia changed its calendar from Julian to Gregorian (current western calendar) in Feb 1st 1918 that became Feb 14th. All dates previous to 2/1/1918 are recorded in Julian date and have been automatically converted to the current day/month/year. For records after 2/14/1918, old calendar date and current day/month/year will be the same.
2) Place of residence: Before the 1917 Revolution, all people within the Russian Empire were "pripisany" (assigned) to a particular administrative unit, usually "uezd". This "pripiska" did not change even if a person moved from place to place (e.g. a person from Novokonstantinov marrying in Odessa). Usually, no place of residence is indicated on the documents but the "pripiska". The information containing "place of residence" in vital records should then, be considered carefully.
3) Occupation: Vital records usually specify "social status" and not occupation. In Russian Empire, meshchanin always meant "city dweller", as opposed to "krestyanin" (rural dweller). The label of meshchan as "petty bourgeois" was an invention of the Soviet propaganda.
