resettlement to the Yenisei PROVINCE

IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE XIX - AT THE BEGINNING OF THE XX CENTURY: ETHNOSOCIAL AND DEMOGRAPHIC ASPECTS

The article examines the main stages of agricultural colonization of the Yenisei province in the second half of the 19th - early 20th centuries. in the context of the formation of a multi-ethnic population of the region. The state policy on resettlement to Siberia is revealed, the places of resettlement of migrants, the influence of natural and climatic conditions on the choice of places of settlement are shown, the dynamics of the population is traced, taking into account changes in its ethnic composition.

Key words: settlers, old-timers, agricultural colonization, state

national politics, ethnic composition.

The formation of a multi-ethnic population of the Yenisei province, formed in 1822 within the Achinsk, Yenisei. Kansky, Krasnoyarsk and Minusinsk districts, was the result of its active colonization in the second half of the 19th - early 20th centuries. The originality of the cultural, historical and economic development of Central Siberia, located between the Tomsk and Tobolsk provinces in the west, Irkutsk in the east, was associated with the vastness of its territory, the severity of natural and climatic conditions, and the wealth of raw materials. All along the length from the Arctic Ocean to Mongolia, the province was crossed by the Yenisei River, as a result of which it received the name Prienisei region. The weak population and low density of its population predetermined the characteristics of migration processes in the region.

In Russian historiography, the main attention in covering the processes of colonization was paid to its causes, as well as problems and failures in the implementation of government policies. Researchers of the post-reform colonization of Siberia of the conservative (V.V. Alekseev, G.F. Chirkin) and liberal directions (V.Yu. Grigoriev, A.A. Kaufman,

A. R. Shneider), a number of whom were directly involved in the activities of resettlement and land management bodies of the Yenisei province, did not connect mass resettlement with social reasons, considering them a consequence of the agricultural crisis in the European part of Russia and overpopulation2.

Soviet historiography, represented

inspired by the works of V.V. Pokshishevsky,

L. F. Sklyarova, V. A. Stepynina,

V. G. Tyukavkina and others, pointed out the cumulative effect of the causes and factors of the colonization process, the most important of which were the displacement of the agricultural peasantry from the central part of the country; the state of harvests in Russia; commissioning of the Siberian Railway; destruction in 1906-1914 parts of peasant communities; desire to maintain the political stability of society3. A. V. Remnev emphasized that peasant colonization was carried out within the framework of imperial policy aimed at integrating Siberia into Russia. To achieve this, the need was proclaimed to strengthen the Slavic component among the foreign ethnic indigenous population, as well as exiled settlers of the region4.

In this article, the main emphasis in covering the agricultural colonization of the Yenisei province is on the formation of its population, which included active state intervention in demographic and ethnosocial processes, regulation of migration flows, taking into account the solution of problems of economic and military-political integration of new territories and ethnic groups.

By issuing a decree in 1822 by the Governor-General of Siberia M. M. Speransky, peasants from all provinces were allowed to move to the Siberian regions, thus the military colonization of Siberia was replaced by an agricultural one. In the early 1850s. Minister of State Property P.D. Kiselev carried out the resettlement of state peasants to the Siberian provinces, including the Yenisei region.

By 1855, according to the report of the governor of the Yenisei province V.K. Padalka, 795 families were settled - immigrants from the Vyatka and Perm provinces, close in natural conditions to the new place of residence of the settlers. In 1856, 799 families came from the same provinces and Oryol. In total, from 1852 to 1858, 5982 male souls were installed with a corresponding number of female ones. Thanks to a significant supply of land and the benefits provided, most of the settlers achieved prosperity. In total, until 1866, there were up to 69 individual resettlement parties, which, together with the settlers of the 1850s. numbered over 9,000 souls of both sexes. These groups were sent mainly to the Minusinsk district (57 parties), whose natural and climatic conditions were favorable for agriculture, as well as nearby Achinsk (7 parties)5.

After the reform of 1861, resettlement became possible for former serfs. The law required that those resettled pay all arrears, renounce participation in worldly land, and receive dismissal sentences from society6. Due to these restrictions, until the early 1880s. Almost the only form of colonization remained the unauthorized resettlement of the peasantry. At the same time, the state need to populate the outskirts and develop their natural resources prompted the government to abandon its passive negative attitude towards resettlement.

In landscape terms, the areas of colonization of the Yenisei province (without Turukhansk region) were quite harsh: taiga occupied 22.9%, mountain taiga regions - 3.8%, forest-steppe and steppe - 3.0%7. The Northern Yenisei District was a taiga zone with a “hill” topography and some wetlands, which greatly devalued the colonization fund. The settlers sought to locate their arable land on elans (meadow glades with deciduous woodlands) and meadow areas called “subtaiga” places. Located along the Siberian tract, they connected individual elans and isolated “islands” of the forest-steppe landscape of the Achinsk, Krasnoyarsk and Kansk districts into a single strip, forming a unique steppe zone. The Minusinsk Basin stood apart, where significant steppe areas

di were surrounded by mountain forests. The ridges divided the entire basin into a number of separate “steppes” - Abakan, Sagai, Kachin, where fertile black soils occupied a significant place. Rich mountain pastures were close to places convenient for plowing. A circumstance that complicated the development of agriculture was the altitude of 400-800 meters above sea level. With severe cold in winter and insufficient snow cover, the cultivation of winter crops was not always successful. Therefore, the settlers sowed almost exclusively spring crops8.

As a result of natural, and mainly mechanical growth, the population of the Yenisei province increased from 176,413 people. in 1823 to 310,338 in 1865. The most densely populated were the agricultural Minusinsk district, where 90,232 people lived. (29.1% of the population of the Yenisei province), as well as industrial Krasnoyarsk with a population of 64,120 people. (20.7%). The remaining districts played an intermediate role in terms of numbers: Achinsk -56,391 people. (18.1%), Kansky - 54884 (17.7%), Yeniseisky - 44711 (14.4%)9.

In the Minusinsk Okrug, migrants were in the majority in a number of places, for example, in the Kuraginsk and Idrinsk volosts. In the vast area of ​​the southwestern part of the district, where before 1850 there were no more than a dozen villages, in 1890 there were 52 of them (7115 farms)10. The settlers preferred to settle in old-time settlements in the steppe or forest-steppe zones, where they could rent housing before building their own house, and get a hired job to receive funds to start their own farm. In the old-time settlements there were large areas of deposits, which were easier to develop than virgin land.

In the 1880-1890s. In the Yenisei province, resettlement points were created to provide medical and food assistance to arriving peasants (Krasnoyarsk, Beloyarskoye, Achinsk, Zaledeevo, Kansk, Olginsky). However, the condition of the premises and services was unsatisfactory.

In 1881, the Committee of Ministers issued rules that allowed the resettlement of peasants who had plots less than 1/3 of the norm established by the regulations of February 19, 1861. The Law of 1889 made it easier for peasants to settle

move from society, provided settlers with government assistance on the way in the form of cheap tariffs on the railway and when setting up a household in a new place, and gave benefits in paying taxes and serving duties for several years11.

Until 1893, in the Yenisei province there were no special bodies and officials involved in settling the settlers, with the exception of the district police officer, who, due to the breadth of his powers, paid almost no attention to the settlers. During 1892-1893 The Krasnoyarsk Temporary Resettlement Committee, formed by representatives of liberal circles of society to provide assistance to new arrivals on a charitable basis, operated. The settlers were left to their own devices in choosing a place to settle and finding a means of living in a new place12.

The newspaper “Eastern Review” talked about the search for land by peasants of the Tambov province (28 families, 150 people) in the Minusinsk district, who on July 2, 1885, on the streets of Minusinsk, “removing their hats, bowing, turned to everyone they met, asking to indicate - “Where should I go?”, where there are free government lands.” As a result of long searches and inquiries, the settlers dispersed in separate families to the old-timer villages of Ermakovskaya, Shushenskaya and other volosts13.

In 1893, during the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway, stretching from Chelyabinsk to Vladivostok, the government, interested in settling its area, began to create a special resettlement apparatus. In 1893, the Committee of the Siberian Railway was formed, headed by the manager A. N. Kulomzin, one of whose tasks was to regulate the resettlement matter. In 1896, the Resettlement Administration was established, actually headed by A.V. Krivoshein, whose responsibilities included organizing the movement of settlers, issuing loans, arranging medical and food stations along the way, preparing a land fund for the colonists and installing them on the plots. Unauthorized resettlement was legalized, and its participants were equalized with resettlers who had permission. In order to prevent the ruin of settlers and the return movement to European Russia, since 1896 they were ordered to, before moving to Siberia,

families, send walkers to select and enroll plots14.

In 1893, the positions of resettlement officials in the districts were established in the Yenisei province, and survey parties began to work to cut out land plots for settlers. In 1898, the positions of peasant chiefs were introduced, designed to provide financial and advisory assistance to settlers in the area within 2-3 volosts. However, the weak business skills of local officials and ignorance of the geographical location of the sites did not allow them to properly perform their duties.

During the governorship of L.K. Telyakovsky (1890-1896), the formation of resettlement and reserve areas began in the Yenisei province. In order to populate the territory of the railway under construction, resettlement authorities sent the bulk of the population to the counties through which it passed (Kansky, Achinsky, Krasnoyarsk). In them in 1893-1905. 289 resettlement settlements arose out of 323 founded in the province (89.5% of their total number). At the same time, the bulk of the resettlement settlements arose away from the steppe and forest-steppe areas, convenient for agriculture, and quite densely populated in the previous period15.

Along with the settlements of Russians, Belarusians and Ukrainians, areas of foreign ethnic populations were created. So, during the migration wave of the 1890-1900s. in the Yenisei province, dozens of Estonian settlements were founded (sections of Torginsky, Samovolny, Kokolevka, Sukhaya Kirza, Gryaznaya Kirza, Surovy, Krol, Sorinsky, Ostrovsky, Bakhchinka of the Krasnoyarsk district, Imbezhsky, Sukhanovsky, Blue Ridge, Estonian, Peasant, Kabritsky, Novo-Pechera , Lebedevo, Chumakovsky, Kipelovo, Bolotny, Kuklino, Krutoy Kansky district16.

In general, over the thirty years of the post-reform period (1865-1896), the rural population of the Achinsk (increase was 200.0%) and Minusinsk (190.3%) districts grew most rapidly. They were followed by Kansky (159.0%), Krasnoyarsk (135.9%) and Yenisei (133.5%) districts. At the same time, the urban population of Kansk (349.9% and Krasnoyarsk (318.8%)17) grew at a faster pace. Regulatory role

government in the process of land management of settlers was carried out in the direction of limiting land use by old-timers in the steppe and forest-steppe regions and, to an even greater extent, in directing settlers to undeveloped areas of the taiga and sub-taiga.

According to the results of the General Census of the Russian Empire in 1897, 570,161 people lived in the Yenisei province, of which 153,970 were non-local natives, which accounted for 26.95% of its population18. Peasants predominated among the old-timers (74.7%). The share of hereditary nobles was 33.1%. Local natives included 39.1% of personal nobles, officials and their families, as well as 36.7% of people of other classes, which included

The indigenous population was also included19.

Among the Siberian migrants there were mainly people from the provinces most affected by the agrarian crisis - 32.2 thousand people. from the Central Black Earth (Tambov

6.4%, Penza - 3.4%, Kursk - 2.8%, Oryol - 2.6%, Ryazan - 1.9%), 10.7 thousand - from the central with strong remnants of serfdom (Nizhny Novgorod - 2 .8%, Vladimirskaya - 1.8%). Migrants from “Little Russian” places were represented by 19.3 thousand people in the provinces of Poltava - 5.8%, Chernigov - 3.3%, Kyiv - 1.6%, Podolsk - 1.2%. A large share of migrants from the first two, as well as 4.3 thousand people from the western provinces (Smolensk - 1.1%, Vitebsk - 0.9%) was explained by the spread of household land ownership, which allowed peasants to sell their plots, giving them material resources when creating a farm in Siberia. 23.8 thousand migrants from the Urals region (Vyatka - 7.4%, Perm

6.1%, Orenburg - 1.1%) and 10.3 thousand Volga region (Samara - 2.9%, Kazan -2.3%, Saratov and Simbirsk - 1.5% each) provinces, conveniently located in relation to to the main routes to Siberia also provided a large share of migrants19.

A significant role in the formation of the population of the Yenisei region was played by immigrants from the Siberian regions - Tobolsk province (9.0%), Tomsk (4.7%) and Irkutsk (1.4%)

From 2 to 5 thousand people. The northern provinces, which actively populated Siberia during the period of colonization of the 17th - 18th centuries, gave only 1.3 thousand migrants (St. Petersburg - 0.9%, Novgorod - 0.6%, Vologda - 0.5%). Up to 1 thousand people named the place of their birth

Denia Baltic provinces (Kovno

0.8%, Livlyandskaya - 0.6%, Courlandskaya

0.3%, Estonian - 0.2%). Arrivals from the Vistula provinces (Warsaw, Lublin, Petrokovskaya) accounted for 2.6% of non-local natives of the Yenisei province, and migrants from the Caucasus and Central Asia each made up 1.0% of the total visiting population20. Data on the places of exit of the newcomer component of the residents of the Yenisei region allow us to draw a conclusion about the multi-ethnic basis of the formation of the population of the region.

Further steps in the development of the government's colonization activities were legislative acts of 1903 on the abolition of mutual responsibility, 1904 - permission for peasants to sell allotment land, 1905-1906. - abolition of redemption payments and mandatory stay of peasants in the community21.

In the conditions of preparation of the Stolypin agrarian reform in 1905, the solution to the resettlement issue was concentrated in the hands of the Main Directorate of Land Management and Agriculture. On the territory of the Yenisei province, where the reform was moving in the direction of resettlement and expansion of the community, a resettlement district was formed headed by the head of the resettlement business, reporting to the governor V.F. Davydov, since 1906 - A.N. Girs.

14 resettlement subdistricts formed in the districts included 129 volosts and 4 “foreign councils” inhabited by Khakassians. In 1906, the Department of Resettlement and Land Management was created in the province, headed by Yu. V. Grigoriev, which was responsible for allocating land plots to settlers, improving their living conditions, and issuing loans for acquiring household goods and equipment22.

In 1906-1910 The resettlement movement in the Yenisei province increased sharply; about 30 thousand farms joined the region. Then there were significant fluctuations in the direction of increase or decrease. In 1906-1916. the number of those settled in the region amounted to 131,185 people, reaching a peak in 1910 (21,203 people)23.

In conditions of a massive flow of migrants, where, unlike the previous period, it was not the middle peasants who predominated, but the poor, new resettlement points were built - Dolgomostovsky, Bolshe-Uluysky, Solbinsky, Sorokinsky, Shushensky, Minusinsky, Bolshemurtinsky. But, according to V. Yu. Grigoriev, built

the complexes did not meet the requirements, so in the spring of 1908 the settlers were placed on the yet-to-melt snow, in the open air24.

From the report of the Resettlement Administration under the Cabinet of Ministers for 1909 it followed that group walkers in five districts of the Yenisei province were allocated over

34.4 thousand sites, of which only 27.4% were enrolled. This was explained by the fact that 71.0% of the shares were provided in the northern and taiga regions, far from residential areas and the railway. At the same time, the bulk of the settlers came from the steppe, southern provinces or central Russia. The largest number of plots was allocated to the provinces of Kursk - 4982, Mogilev

4000, Vitebsk - 2892, etc. 25

In total, 16.6 thousand shares were credited. In addition, 1,572 families with 5.3 thousand shares received acceptance sentences (enrolled) in old-timers' societies. 7,390 families were settled in the resettlement areas, which included 21,562 male souls (about the same number of females were resettled). Of these, 72.0% of families settled according to passage certificates (that is, with guaranteed receipt of a plot), and 28.0% were unauthorized migrants. In addition, 1,767 families with 5,631 males were established in the farms of old-timers. The largest share of settled families was in Kansky district (38.3%), the smallest in Yenisei district (2.3%). In Achinsk district, 23.5% of families settled, Minusinsk - 20.2%, Krasnoyarsk -

16.2%. In the well-developed old-timer farms of the Minusinsk district,

34.5% of migrants26.

Of those installed, 3.7% of those settled in the province returned to their homeland and went to other places in Siberia

4.4%27. The reverse movement of settlers, as in the previous period, was due to the unsuitability of the harvested plots for agriculture at the existing level of agronomy, insufficient loans, lack of additional earnings to obtain funds for setting up a farm, crop failures, famine, epidemics, etc.

From 1893 to 1912, the Resettlement Administration of the Yenisei Province established 2,023 sites (671 during the period of Stolypin’s resettlement policy): of which 800 and 352, respectively, in Kansk and Achinsk districts,

409 - in the least favorable for agriculture Yenisei district, whose organized settlement began precisely during this period, 186 - in Krasnoyarsk, 236 - in Minusinsk district, 40 - in the Usinsk border district28.

The geography of resettlement of settlers indicated that the government sought to settle areas specially designated for colonization, mainly in the forest and taiga zones of the Kan and Yenisei districts. A characteristic feature of the new settlements was a higher density of settlement than in the areas of old-time land tenure, and heterogeneity of owners in the places where they left the European part of Russia. At the same time, there was a desire to make maximum use of the old colonization areas of the Minusinsk and Achinsk districts. Here, the process of land management of old-timers began to be actively carried out with the aim of removing their “surplus” and organizing resettlement plots on their lands. The difficulties for immigrants in acquiring acceptance sentences and the difficulties of living with old-timers in the position of non-registered people have disappeared. On average, 15-17 acres of land were allocated per head of old-timers and male settlers, including arable lands, hayfields,

sy and pastures29.

Intra-allot land surveying of resettlement farms in the province, which the government sought to direct along the path of creating farmsteads and cuttings, began in 1909. Given the existing tradition of the Siberian community not to redistribute developed land and the actual existence of household land use, it extended to old-timer farms only in 1912.30

During the years of Stolypin's resettlement policy, several thousand farms were formed in the Yenisei province. Farmers were mainly immigrants from the Baltic states, as well as Germans and Belarusians. Thus, in 1908, Lutheran Latvians, Catholic Latgalians, immigrants from the Livonia and Vitebsk provinces, numbering 32 thousand people, settled in the Krasnoyarsk, Achinsk, Minusinsk and Kansk districts, where they founded about 50 settlements31. In the Krasnoyarsk district, the Stepno-Badzheyskaya volost was formed with a large number of Estonian Lutherans. The village of Haidak became the center of the Orthodox Setu Estonians, who settled the territory between the Kan and Mana rivers in 1900.

Perovskaya volost of Kansky district 32.

As the settlers advanced in 1910-1916. deep into the region, the depletion of the colonization fund of convenient lands, officials of the Resettlement Administration carried out an audit of plots, some of which, due to lack of demand by the colonists, were transferred to the category of reserve ones. The settlers of these remote and inconvenient areas could not receive additional income, which was so necessary while the economy was being established, since the loan for its establishment was clearly insufficient (an average of 40.62 rubles). There were often cases when people from 7-12 provinces of different nationalities settled in one resettlement area, as a result of which disagreements arose with neighbors on land use issues related to communal, household or farm management. There were clashes of a religious nature33. In a number of cases, especially in 1907-1910, spare areas were used to accommodate settlers.

Some of the settlers had a desire to move to relatives or co-religionists who had settled in areas of the old-time zone with more developed economies, infrastructure, schools and church parishes. Depending on the location of installation, different economic effects were obtained. The most well-settled migrants were considered to be those who settled in old-timer villages or in areas of the old-timer zone. The colonists who had to develop the taiga and foothills found themselves in the most difficult situation. The table data shows the average characteristics of the economic situation of re-Comparative data of farms

settlers in old-timer villages and relatively new resettlement areas in comparison with the economy of old-timers.

2012 marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of the outstanding Russian statesman Pyotr Arkadyevich Stolypin.

P.A. Stolypin was born on April 2, 1862 into a noble family. He studied at the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of St. Petersburg University. After graduating, he held various positions in the public service, including being the governor of the Grodno and Saratov provinces. In 1906 he was appointed Minister of Internal Affairs and Chairman of the Council of Ministers. He served as Chairman of the Council of Ministers until 1911. On September 1, 1911, he was mortally wounded by the anarchist D. G. Bogrov.

In 1906 P.A. Stolypin proclaimed a course towards socio-political and economic reforms, the most important of which was the reform of peasant allotment land tenure, aimed at eliminating peasant land shortages, increasing the intensity of economic activity of the peasantry on the basis of private ownership of land, and increasing the marketability of peasant farming. To achieve these goals, the law of November 9, 1906 allowed exit from the peasant community.

An integral part of the agrarian reform was the resettlement policy, which was supposed to solve the most pressing problems of Russia's internal development - the development of uninhabited outlying lands and the elimination of rural overpopulation in European Russia, and mitigate the consequences of the reform itself - the destruction of the peasant community, the capitalization of the village.

From the organized resettlement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. resettlement policy P.A. Stolypin was more thoughtful and attractive to the settlers themselves. All issues related to resettlement were widely explained in printed publications specially published for the peasant population. Various loans were also introduced for settlers - from preferential railway travel to loans for home improvement, which allowed the poorest representatives of the peasant population to move to new lands, and not just the middle peasants, as before. In places of settlement, in order to avoid any land conflicts with the old-timer population, settlers were allocated special plots allocated for these purposes from state and government lands.

These and other measures led to a surge in resettlement activity among the population. The resettlement movement during this period covered 47 provinces, compared to 17 provinces at the end of the 19th century. And according to the Resettlement Administration, in 1908 alone, more than 750 thousand immigrants were transported by rail to Siberia, while from 1885 to 1896. Only 469,275 people moved beyond the Urals.

The Yenisei province was one of the first Siberian provinces opened for resettlement at the end of the 19th century. From that time on, resettlement did not stop until the outbreak of the First World War, and by 1914, settlers already accounted for more than half of the province’s residents. And if we take into account wartime refugees, population migration during the Civil War and the first years of Soviet power, we can say that resettlement processes continued here continuously until the mid-1920s, having a huge impact on various spheres of life. Therefore, documents reflecting the state’s resettlement policy, including those pursued by Stolypin, are found in many funds of the State Archives of the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

Fund 4 “Krasnoyarsk resettlement point” contains documents on the activities of resettlement centers on the territory of the Yenisei province: information on the amount of food aid issued to settlers at the Kansk resettlement point in 1906; table of the cost of civil structures at resettlement points - Staro-Krasnoyarsky, Novo-Krasnoyarsky, Achinsky, Kansky, Olginsky, Bolshe-Uluysky, Abansky, Tinsky, Dolgo-Mostovsky, Minusinsky in 1908; statements on the status of loans at the disposal of the head of the Krasnoyarsk resettlement center for the first half of 1913; cost estimate for the Krasnoyarsk resettlement point for 1914; correspondence on personnel and economic issues of the Krasnoyarsk resettlement point.

There are many documents in the fund about medical assistance to resettlers - an extract from the journal of the general presence of the Yenisei provincial administration dated March 1, 1907, ordering that peasants, both old-timers and new settlers, be sent to hospitals at resettlement points only if ordinary rural hospitals are occupied and in the presence of special accompanying papers; reports on the repair and completion of the Novo-Krasnoyarsk, Achinsky, Kansky, Olginsky, Abansky, Tinsky resettlement medical centers of the Yenisei province for 1908; correspondence of officials about the state of medical care for displaced people, about the medical personnel of resettlement points, about the appointment of medical personnel to serve in resettlement points, certificates of medical education.

The fund also contains correspondence about the transportation of settlers to Minusinsk and Yeniseisk from Krasnoyarsk along the Yenisei River on the ships of the joint-stock company "Shipping Company on the Yenisei River" in 1913. It contains information about the procedure for transporting settlers, about the place where settlers boarded the ships of the joint-stock company in Krasnoyarsk , about the conditions under which the migrants expected to be sent, about the number of migrants sent, about the rate determined for the transportation of resettlement luggage (luggage, horses, cattle, ordinary carts) to the piers of Derbina, Daurskaya, Ubeyskaya, Novoselovskaya, Batenevskaya, Ust -Erbinskaya, Sorokina, Minusinskaya, Atamanova, Pavlovshchina, Okseeva, Zalivskaya, Kazachinskaya, Strelka, Yeniseiskaya. Attached to the correspondence are the certificates of the barge paramedics accompanying the settlers to Minusinsk and Yeniseisk.

An interesting notice from the Resettlement Administration, sent in 1907 to the resettlement organizations of the province, was about cases of agitation against resettlement among peasant migrants at the stations of the Siberian, Transbaikalian railways and the Chinese Eastern Railway, noticed by an agent of the Poltava provincial zemstvo government.

Fund 31 “Yenisei Provincial Statistical Committee” contains a table on the placement of settlers in the volost plots of the Kansky district in 1906. The table provides data: for how many souls the plots were formed; the number of men and women who settled on them until 1906; the number of men and women who settled on them in 1906; the number of those who arrived in 1906 with permission; the number of people who arrived without permission in 1906; provinces of departure of migrants; the number of families who took advantage of loans in 1906 for home improvement, crops, and food (in rubles and kopecks); the number of shares enrolled for walkers and free by sections and volosts.

Fund 160 “Yenisei Provincial Treasury Chamber” contains passports, family lists of migrants, protocols on placement in resettlement sites, protocols on the exclusion of migrants from exit points, resettlement passage certificates, walking certificates. They contain information about both immigrants and their family members. In addition, these documents provide general information about the resettlement procedure.

Next to the pedestrian there is a stick - a meta, which is the beginning of the distance, the second pole is not visible. Behind is a crowd of men - peasants of different ages in festive clothes, watching what is happening. The competition takes place on the street of the village; part of its right side with several residential and outbuildings is visible. This kind of “race” between horse and foot was organized by Siberians in the summer on holidays and fairs.

As we were able to establish, our ancestors came to the Krasnoyarsk fort among the first Russian inhabitants in the middle of the 17th century. After which, for a long period of time, they lived sedentarily in Krasnoyarsk, on the territory of the Podgorodnaya and Zaledeevskaya volosts of the Krasnoyarsk district, and later in the Yenisei province, in the Novoselovskaya, Knyshenskaya, Tesinskaya, Shushenskaya, Abakan and other volosts of the Minusinsk district (county) and the Uzhurskaya volost Achinsk district (county).

However, individual families sometimes changed their place of residence. These moves were probably associated, first of all, with the policy of the state, which sought to fully develop the territory of Siberia. New populated areas were created, and residents settled in them from nearby, larger and more economically developed villages; there were apparently personal reasons.

Any movement, and especially the resettlement of Russian residents, was very strictly regulated and controlled. There was such a norm as “counting people” as settlements, which was carried out on the basis of the relevant decrees of the Provincial Treasury Chambers.

The first wave of migrations of my ancestors occurred in the mid-60s of the 19th century. This is obviously connected, among other things, with the abolition of serfdom in Russia in 1861. Many families of our ancestors belonged to the peasant class. And, although there was no serfdom in Siberia, one of the points of the Manifesto on the abolition of serfdom provided for the freedom of movement of peasants, which individual families did not fail to take advantage of.

The second wave of resettlement dates back to the Soviet period. After 1917, the structure of the population and way of life changed significantly. During the years of political repression, people usually left their homes against their own will.

I was able to follow the migration of some families in the Yenisei province.

Krasnoyarsk city

Among the first persons named Kattsyn who came to the Krasnoyarsk fort, probably after 1643, was the Cossack Yakov Nikitin Kattsyn, who previously lived in the village of Svinina Okologorodnaya volost of Solvychegodsk district. Perhaps, before coming to Krasnoyarsk, Yakov lived for some time in Sol Kamskaya. From the scribe books of Solvychegodsk district in 1645 and 1647. it is known that “...Yakunka Nikitin, nicknamed Kadtsyny, fled (ran) to the Siberian cities, namely, to Sol Kama in the RNV (1643) year.” For more details, see below, in the section “Where our roots come from.”

In Krasnoyarsk, Yakov had a son, Mikhail, who was a mounted Cossack. Mikhaila Yakovlev Katsyn (Kadtsyn) had sons Rodion and Ermolai. Ermolai served as a Krasnoyarsk Cossack and lived in Krasnoyarsk. He had no sons. Ermolai Katsyn's eldest daughter, Ekaterina, married the Krasnoyarsk tradesman Mikhail Petrov Petlishny, the youngest daughter Anna was married to the Krasnoyarsk tradesman Ivan Fedorov Cherkasov. The name of the husband of Ermolai’s middle daughter, Maria, has not yet been established. Rodion Mikhailov Katsyn was initially a Cossack, and after the redundancy of the Krasnoyarsk Cossacks he became a commoner. His eldest son Andrei and younger Ivan had the status of Cossacks, and three other sons - Ilya, Philip and Kozma were engaged in peasant labor.

According to the censuses of Krasnoyarsk and the district of 1713 and 1719-22. Vasily Katsyn, a foot Cossack, also lived in Krasnoyarsk, who is undoubtedly a relative of Mikhail. However, their relationship has not yet been established. Vasily also served in a detachment of Krasnoyarsk servicemen. His sons Stepan and Foma were also Cossacks, and Larion was a commoner and peasant.

The metric books, confessional paintings of the Krasnoyarsk Intercession and Krasnoyarsk Annunciation churches for the 18th-20th centuries contain records relating to Krasnoyarsk residents named Katsyna, including the descendants of Ermolai, Stepan, Thomas, as well as the teacher of the Krasnoyarsk elementary school Fedor Dmitriev Katsyna and others.

The non-taxable population in Siberia represented mainly the interests of the exploiting classes of the country. By 1861, there were over 24 thousand people in the Yenisei province, or 7.4% of the total number of residents of both sexes. Of these, there were 2,210 nobles, up to 2 thousand clergy, over 7 thousand military and retired officials, 12.6 thousand Cossacks and 231 honorary citizens. The influx of nobles increased significantly due to the development of gold mining and administrative reforms. Even the titled nobility did not hesitate to join many joint-stock gold mining companies. Many of their commission agents, trustees and mine managers came from the noble class. The circumstances that brought them to Siberia can be clearly seen, for example, in the fate of the former brilliant sailor-courtier M.A. Butakov, who became a Krasnoyarsk resident and the most famous local satirist, the author of the handwritten “Krasnoyarsk Panorama”, which ridiculed the high Krasnoyarsk society. From his service record lists for 1858 and 1860 it is clear that Mikhail Aleksandrovich Butakov (born in 1820) was originally from the nobility of the St. Petersburg province.

As a 16-year-old boy, he entered the Naval Cadet Corps on August 24, 1836, from which he was released on December 21, 1839 as a naval officer with the rank of midshipman, equal to the rank of lieutenant in the army. Five years later, M.A. Butakov became a naval lieutenant and in this rank, apparently through the patronage of relatives, entered the service at the imperial court. For four years he commanded various palace pleasure boats and received the order. Then the court service of the 30-year-old brilliant naval officer suddenly ended. Having resigned on October 16, 1850 “to civil affairs” with the next, but already civil, rank of collegiate assessor, he left for Siberia. If you believe the author of the poetic “Reader’s Answer” of the “Krasnoyarsk Panorama” N.V. Latkin, who discovered knowledge of the biography of his satirist, the reason for such a sharp turn in his fate may have been the marriage and birth of his daughter Alexandra in 1850, which may not have been included into the plans of his relatives who financially helped him. At least N.V. Latkin wrote that the author of “Panorama” was “sent by his grandfather to a distant land to feed his family.” According to the same N.V. Latkin, M.A. Butakov had little success in the gold mining industry. But his affairs and, accordingly, his weight in local Krasnoyarsk society unexpectedly improved with the receipt of an inheritance from his uncle.

This allowed M.A. Butakov to participate more actively in business transactions. Thus, from the records of the brokerage book, where various business agreements and contracts were registered at the Krasnoyarsk City Duma for the period from September 23, 1858 to December 1859, we learn that the collegiate assessor M. A. Butakov received on August 8, 1855 a power of attorney to be attorney for the affairs of the large Krasnoyarsk gold miner Viktor Fedorovich Bazilevsky and on his behalf in March 1858 bought from the gold miner Alexander Nikolaevich Lopatin his three shares in the Novo-Petropavlovsky mine in the Boguchansky volost of the Yenisei district, and in November of the same year he sold the entire mine to the same Lopatin for 5 thousand rubles. The well-informed I.F. Parfentyev calls the fleet captain M.A. Butakov a gold miner, rich and well-connected, and ranks him among the local aristocracy.
