The Penza governorship was established in 1780 during the administrative reform of Catherine II on the lands withdrawn for this purpose from the Kazan province (from the former Penza province, abolished in 1775), as well as from the lands of the former Shatsk and Tambov provinces (ceased to exist in the same 1775) of the Voronezh province. The Penza governorship consisted of thirteen counties (Verkhnelomovskiy, Gorodischenskiy, Insarskiy, etc.). During the reign of Paul the First in 1796, during the reverse reorganization of the Russian governorships in the province, most of the districts of the abolished Saratov governorship were transferred to the newly organized Penza governorate - Atkarsky, Balashovsky, Volsky, Kamyshinsky, Kuznetsky, Petrovsky, Saratovsky, Serdobsky and Tsarsky ...

In the Penza province in whole or in part
there are the following maps and sources:

(except for the general
all-Russian atlases, where this province may also be)

1st and 2nd imposition of land surveying of the 18th century. (1780-90s)
A single-imposition and a two-imposition map is not a topographic one (latitudes and longitudes are not indicated on it), a hand-drawn map of the late 18th century. (after changing the borders of the provinces in 1775-79) on a scale of 1 inch 1 verst or in 1 cm 420 m and 1 inch 2 versts or in 1 cm 840 m... The maps are colored, very detailed.
The purpose of the land survey map is to indicate the boundaries of land plots (so-called dachas) within the county.


1st layout of the Penza province Mende 1850s
Mende's single-imposition map is a topographic one (latitudes and longitudes are indicated on it), a hand-drawn map of the mid-second half of the 19th century. (after the next changes in the borders of the provinces of Russia in 1802-03), very detailed - on a scale of 1 inch 1 verst or in 1cm 420 m... A separate county was drawn in fragments, on several sheets, shown on a single sheet.

Lists of populated areas of the Penza province in 1869 (according to information from 1864).
This is a one-stop reference guide containing the following information:
- the status of a settlement (a village, a hamlet, a village - proprietary or state-owned, that is, state-owned);
- the location of the settlement (in relation to the nearest tract, camp, at a well, pond, stream, river or river);
- the number of households in the settlement and its population (men and women separately);
- distance from the county town and the camp apartment (the center of the camp) in versts;
- the presence of a church, chapel, mill, etc.

In 1797, the Penza province was abolished (de facto, it was reorganized into the Saratov province by a simple renaming). The Penza districts, which were not part of the new Saratov province, were distributed between the Tambov Penza and Simbirsk provinces (the Nizhny Lomovsk district became part of the Tambov province, the Krasnoslobodsky district became part of the Nizhny Novgorod province, the Saransky, Insarsky districts - into the Simbirsk province). The city of Penza became the district center of the district of the same name in the north-west of the Saratov province. In the very first year of the reign of Alexander the First (in September 1801), the Penza province was restored practically within the former Catherine's borders of ten counties, the number of which remained in the entire subsequent pre-revolutionary period of the history of the Penza province.
