Abstract
The article examines the features of documenting of the belonging to the nobility at the end of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. This period was the time of cardinal changes in the life of Ukrainian society. At this time, the Ukrainian Cossack officialdom changes his legal and social status, turning into a nobility. The change in the position of the Cossack elite significantly influenced the socio-political life of Ukraine. Therefore it is important to study the legal basis and mechanism for the acquisition of the nobility in the Russian Empire. It was found out that the bodies responsible for documenting the the belonging to the nobility were the Assembly of the Nobility, which included deputies from the uyezds headed by the Marshal of Nobility. The main task of the noble Assembly of the Nobility was to examine the documents, establishing nobility and the conduct of noble genealogical books. In their activities, meetings were guided by the procedure described in the Charter to the Nobility in 1785. This procedure involved several stages: 1) compilation of handlists of nobility that contained information on the family status of the nobleman, his rank and place of service, the place of residence, the number of serfs male; 2) preliminary consideration of documents proving the nobility and drawing up extracts of these evidences; 3) documentary fixation of the noble status – the recording of the clan into the genealogy book and the issuance of a Patent of nobility. During the reign of Paul I, the emperor reserves the right to granting the nobility. At the same time, the activity of the Assemblys of the Nobility and the maintenance of genealogical books were not forbidden, but their functions were limited to collecting data on local nobles. In 1801 the new Russian emperor Alexander I, returns to the noble Assemblys of the Nobility the right to granting the nobility.
