For federal judges: As they had to be nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate, there would be plenty of documentation in the Congressional Record, and a hearing printed by the Senate Judiciary Committee. This should be a much better source than FOIA (especially since personnel records are immune to FOIAs). There may even have been a special swearing-in ceremony held at the judge's court when he arrived, and somebody might have a transcript or tape of it.
