| Summary: | The XVII century became the time of statement as a part of the Russian state for Siberia. For huge territory which was attached in the east this period designated the need of its economic development. This development included among other fixing of information about territory both as the written texts arranging the population, lands, duties (tyaglo) and in the form of the cartographical documents which were fixing the new region, allocating administrative points and etc.
This article presents the comparative analysis of office administration and cartographic materials of the specified period such as the Census book of the Tara District of 1701 and the Chorographic Drawing book by S.U. Remezov. Despite the differences in objectives set for the compilers of the investigated sources, both this documents in many respects are intertwined in implementation of own intentions. This stipulated their parallel cross-lightning of the perspective connected with development of the population of a certain territory. There are given some examples which are connected with descriptions of the social and economic plan, structure of the population, housekeeping methods, the environmental conditions, means of communication and their extents. It allows to verify the identification, comparison and mutual addition of information of the Census book and Chorographic book. Moreover it confirms possibility of getting of new information which allows to visually assess the situation which developed in Middle Priirtyshje in specified historical period of time. It is obvious that drawings of S.U. Remezov have refracted the fiscal document Census book so authors suggest that it will allow to perform further historical reconstruction of the population of this territory at a boundary of the XVII–XVIII centuries.
