Intersection register · custodian, not owner
Ganja (formerly Elizavetpol under the Russian Empire), the second city of Azerbaijan, was home to a mixed community composed of Mountain Jews (Gorskie Evrei, Judeo-Tat speakers) and Ashkenazi Jews who arrived with the Russian administration in the nineteenth century. This communal duality is documented in imperial censuses.
