The mean astronomical latitude of the Tashkent Observatory was determined by D. D. Gedeonov in 1895–1896 before the International Latitude Service had been organized. The determination was based on a continuous fourteen-month series of observations with a Wanschaff visual zenith telescope (d = 68 mm., f = 870 mm.). These data consisted of the observations of 2214 Talcott pairs which were observed from July, 1895 through August, 1896.
