nothing on earth passes the scales of us, as we grew up with him, and then we remembered our youth together with him and discovered new names of russian culture. and now his voice remains with us.

we live our profession, create something new , learn and teach. we try to make the world a better place and often do not think about it. where did it all begin? where did we come from, where are our roots, and meanwhile, the history of a large country is made up of the history of each family from its age in our country, yes,

through which such upheavals swept social like the first world war, the civil war and the second world war, it is probably not easy to find any archival detailed accurate data. i think that in western europe it will not be difficult here. it’s not easy for us vladimir menshov an actor who has played more than 60 roles in films a director who convinced the whole world that moscow does not believe in tears for which he received an oscar was born in baku in 1939 the son of valentin menshov and antonina dubovskaya husband of actress vera alentova father is a tv presenter and actress yulia menshova not so long ago learned with interest that surnames arose in russia only these were exactly 120 years ago, and if the noble councils were

building their genealogical tree, then we had nowhere to build them for nothing, because we have such a short one. i know it's a terribly dramatic story. vladimir menshov decides to start researching his ancestry while he knows nothing about his distant ancestors, even about his close relatives grandparents, he knows little. when the kids are small , they calm down at the level of their grandfather. and when they grow up, then, of course, they would like to know, after all, further. and what is there next, the children ask if they are interested, then this is important vladimir valentinovich understands it will take a little more time and it will be almost impossible to find information about previous generations children, and even more so grandchildren will not be able to restore

their pedigree or family tree connections in the form of a tree, the name of the ancestor is placed like a root at the base, and on the trunk they are located in cartouches, names, portraits and coats of arms of his descendants, the genealogical tree itself is a variant of the world characteristic of medieval representations of the universe, as a variation, the image of the tree of human life arises. in it the ancestors of the living generations are united. and descendants in order to start searching for their roots, vladimir valentinovich refers to the website of our program, which contains detailed instructions in the field of genealogical research. in this he is helped by his daughter yulia vladimir valentinovich, who knows that his parents natives of the astrakhan province mom from a large peasant family from which family the father is a mystery to menshov the only thing that vladimir valentinovich remembers from early childhood is the talk

that his father had a younger brother. and that the menshov brothers were orphaned early, he considered simply because he never told. well, he told me that, by and large, it turns out, apparently, that’s how it is, er, the parents didn’t work here. a lot of information about a person can be obtained at his place of residence in the 20th century, he always left some traces. here we say thank you from the soviet propiska system in order to receive this information. you can contact the local archive. they are in any area of ​​a large city. if you are unable to go there. you can put a request for answers usually have to wait from a few weeks to several months. the experts of our site advise vladimir menshov to go to astrakhan vladimir valentinovich goes to where his ancestors come from and where his younger sister irina still lives very soon vladimir

menshov remains to be seen. how many cows could he get from his grandfather? why did the old sea dog end up on the fire tower and which of his relatives caught the american spy? astrakhan volga venice gateway to the caspian sea southern farpost of russia fishing capital saturated with the aroma of smoked sturgeon and dried bream city of the sun and famous watermelons vladimir menshov spent his childhood and youth here directly from the airport vladimir valentinovich goes to visit his sister irina he hopes that their common memories will help restore missing links in family history. dear menshova irina valentinovna worked all her life as a school teacher. she

was born in baku in 1941 in retirement. daughter of valentin menshov and antonina dubovskaya, younger sister of vladimir menshov by the time her brother arrived, irina valentinovna had collected all the documents and photographs that she had left from her parents. now and as many as you want there are a million of these photos in every house. why don't we curly people want all sorts of wavy hair at all? here is a little something it was impossible to believe that there was such a head of hair. come on, you remember, you even all yourself admired how smart our father was. do you remember how he is, let some kind of self-taught? yes, there was one. oh, how he loved when we came to see him. nothing, nothing, but the brother existed in the stories. what was the

father, so that he ever split? well, in general, he will be , so to speak, a completely different kind of person, valentin mikhailovich, a professional sailor , later chekist was born in 1912. to trusova remote area of ​​astrakhan and nothing is known about his parents, the father of vladimir and irina menshov and he worked. uh-huh studied and moreover, and i already started to go on a spree. eh, although it seems like it was already great, then girls appeared there. that is, i somehow sit down there to solve the problem somehow and something doesn’t work out for me. i am writing a note to my father. something i could not cope with some task of evening school. after evening school. i wake up and there is already a solution. here i didn't succeed. it was rare for me. well it never was that he couldn't cope with this task. and here i am, and i was excellent in old papers. irina valentinovna found her father's work book, a document that

records a person's place of work throughout his life, a valuable source of information for family research. yes, the work book is a sailor of the first and second class, then he began to stay from the edge and then assistants to the captain, the personnel department of the nkvd sailed for 11 months , most likely, it was the service in the nkvd that made valentin menshov a secretive person, but now vladimir valentinovich has a real chance to learn more about the life of his father. the source of information can be the personal file of valentina

menshov , which is stored in the archive of the fsb of astrakhan. will give an exhaustive answer within 3-4 weeks. he will indicate all his closest relatives, which are contained in his personal file, meanwhile yulia menshova sends a request for access to the personal file of his grandfather, the astrakhan branch of the fsb allows the lesser people to get acquainted with the surviving service documents of their ancestor, it will become known very soon. so look, i'm making a sharp u-turn. how do i deal with these courts? so i didn't become a captain. or maybe in vain did not go along this line? maybe i would be an outstanding captain, you know the future of the academy award series

vladimir menshov grew up in a large port city, the fate of the boys. here was predestined most of them became fishermen or sailors on menchov, he decided he would be an actor to perform acts that were not strong from the category. so to speak, the expected had to be overcome, and not to some kind of irony. i would say the environment, which, having learned about his thoughts, that he wants to go to moscow. yes, even to act as an artist. yes, it made me laugh . well, that is, joy at every non- admission, because dad did not enter there . as you know, there is only the fourth time. people do not like it when some people break out somewhere, because they want to comfort themselves. hope that this is impossible, but, it turns out, perhaps now vladimir menshov, only occasionally manages to escape to astrakhan, the city of his childhood

and meet old friends. well , no doubt, st. petersburg english embankment, st. petersburg in general, they removed all this arrow, they removed it. well, of course, there were such plates . plus, there are 12 we are already attire. we are two times typhus is once a plague, these are trifles. yes, once i swam. yes, the truth was afraid i was accompanied by

a boat. i swam to trusov, i don’t land to go crazy. come on, i'm the world champion, i think that's when they didn't record these maid results. why did his grandfather sell his only horse, and why did his mother run away from her parents' house? vladimir menshov continues the study of his pedigree , together with his sister irina, he recalls the story of his parents' acquaintance. menshov know that in the late thirties their mother antonina, dubovskaya got a job as a maid on a passenger ship that sailed across the caspian sea on this ship. served as an assistant to the captain, the beautiful and stately valentin menshov youth and garden romance. they did their job in 1938. valentin and antonina's

schedule remained incomprehensible, what happened and she somehow told me. what that was, that it was on the run, that its captain was a big social difference, like a big one and that's it. this, then someone looked after her there and was going to marry her, so uh, she was 8 years older than antonina alexandrovna dubovskaya was born all leeching near astrakhan, the daughter of alexander and anastasia dubovsky, the mother of vladimir and irina menshova, he appreciated everything in her. these household islands specially remained on the shore, and the one who courted went on a voyage, and during this time, it means she reacted and it was just theirs to make such a marriage, of course, it was, then it was not easy for both of them, all this and the age difference came out and somehow so to

speak. mom was really quite different from her father. she means too, but she a hologram is there, and you still have some letters left, not a single one i had something she wrote to me several times when i was studying, i didn’t find them, i didn’t find them antonina dubovskaya often told her daughter and son about her childhood. she was from a wealthy peasant family. and menshov's grandfather alexander dubovsky was considered a fist in the village. here, as my mother recalled , they were provided with very bags of flour, well, the fact that the family needed sugar, grandmother anastasia i just loved the universe very much. i'm telling you, grandfather is beyond the threshold. and the walkers are already going to someone there sugar to pour flour on someone, she says she never refused anyone alexander nikolaevich and

anastasia ivanovna dubovsky volga peasants. antonina's parents, dubovskaya, vladimir's grandparents and irina menshova this is known, that is, this is the most special childhood. yes, yes, they went there, and went to the sea on the beams until something no boats there, no, no. it was very dangerous, that's all. here, uh, it was, everyone came back very much. here it is loaded yes, yes. to learn more about dubov's maternal ancestors vladimir menshov sent to the astrakhan regional archive. he hopes to find information about how his grandfather survived the difficult years of general collectivization for all peasants. we found information about the time when alexander nikolayevich dubovskoy was dispossessed. yes, it means that the kulak, a former buyer of fish with a

patent of the iv category, was engaged in this business until the year 27. in pre-revolutionary russia, peasants were called fists, who used hired labor in the economy and kept the rural community dependent on themselves, that is, in a fist with the advent of soviet power the meaning of the word kulak became more vague, so they called the peasants who were better in the house than the neighbor’s cow spidering, and the horse was stronger in the thirties, the term kulak received a specific political coloring, kulaks were called all christians who had their own farm and did not want to join collective farms, the soviet government considered them as a hostile element, the existing arrangements they were evicted to sparsely populated territories, put in prisons, and their property was confiscated. here is an au pair one house one cow. one arbaba. one themselves of course it it was possible to kulaks only. only vicious, because it is not just the owner and all the strong

owner, who earned everything with his own hands, but the main thing is that they did not have hired workers. that's what i know for sure, so uh, although he later hid in uh, the soviet government very strongly in 1928-29 in soviet russia began a campaign to curtail the nep new economic policy, which allowed private enterprise in the astrakhan region, held an action under the code name astrakhan region. its goal was to eliminate private property. this struggle did not bypass the rural inhabitants of the peasants. they drove property on the collective farm and took away the fund of collective farms. these soviet elements were speaking to me. soviet power is robbing the dispossessed - it only means he has voting rights. it is not so, here they are for 500 rubles. with a view, as well as a horse.

it is difficult for a modern person to imagine what a horse meant for a peasant, it was the breadwinner of a family, losing a horse meant falling into great need, being afraid to lose the last alexander dubovskaya. the breadwinner voluntarily sells her bread, thereby dooming the whole family to starvation, but saving her from dispossession. menshov's maternal ancestors lived in the village of chagan near astrakhan. vladimir valentinovich here for the first time with his sister and her grandson goes to visit the old-timers of the village paulina mikhailovna and zinaida alexandrovna, perhaps they know something about the dubovskys who lived or live here until now. well, you see, such an artist now

you will see him on tv, say yes, we know him, he is with us there we arrived at our homeland mother's surname was the former dubovsky, and ours were slurping on bolshoi street, small. she's been there a lot. yes , there are 10 here. yes, and they still remember the dubovskys. here, on almost every street, peasants lived with such a surname , they knew it so well, but your mother, how she doesn’t exist. antonina antonina alexandrovna chewed on her. still, they were,

yes, they are so rich. we know that, when i arrived, my grandfather was no longer at home since the third year, but here are the people who were sitting there and talking. yes, you had a big house here. grandfather he had eight people children's eyes go from conversations with local residents. vladimir menshov finds out that the last inhabitants of the village, the center, who bore the surname dubovskaya, died, 4 years ago there were no traces. this big family. there is none left here. even the village church, in which more than one generation of dubov’s people were baptized, married and buried, burned down long ago, all church records could have burned down with it, but he was less fortunate in the course of his searches, he manages to find the metrics of the intercession church of the village of ochachan, they were preserved in the regional archive. we looked through all the metric books, silachigan, where your relatives lived

dubovskie. that's just the record of your mother's birth. here it means that the count was born on the first of march 1905. here antonina celebrated march 1 on the same day. here to hold in your hands. register of births for the year 905 and read born march 1, 1905 antonina this is recorded, and the first was born, she was baptized right there. and taken home. that's how it started. antonina aleksandrova who later became my mother. in church records, information about the brothers and sisters of the mother of

vladimir menshov was preserved; there were seven of them vera alexandra mikhail nikolay gavriil victor and alexei, baptized according to the calendar, as leonid heard from vladimir valentinovich’s mother, his grandfather was of such a cool temper that all her brothers and sisters fled from their home at the first opportunity, and they didn’t like him for it. he kept in a black body, and they worked like slaves worked for him at home, probably. and the girls were dragging milk, but the bazaar with cans, my mother says, i can’t believe it, i can’t believe the concrete with milk on my back and walked on foot. this is where milk was sold at the tatar bazaar. this is two. how much is 20 kg less, probably. valentinovich will have to find out if the secret services reveal their secrets which fish

the ancestors of the smaller one considered real and what was the name of his grandmother? vladimir valentinovich continues to study his family tree, he has already found out that his mother antonina dubovskaya had seven brothers and sisters and that his grandfather alexander dubovskaya was dispossessed, but it is important for vladimir valentinovich to find out where his ancestors menshova and dubovskaya appeared on astrakhan land. to do this, menshov goes to the regional library. department of rare books hello hello smirnov yuri semyonovich nice vladimir valentinovich please tell me that you are interested in your family roots. yes, of course, in your relatives, and i think everyone, both lesser and dubovsky. it was the rapists who ran from above them

in russia. they wore them. here is chagan kamyzyak, these villages were already under yes, not under, but for more than 200 years the astrakhan peasants were fishing ; the floating shoals of kira, the herring sazanov and other small fish, were not taken into account as real prey , they considered only the squirrel everything in rurik and sturgeon. the dubov menshov men stood, or they damned this fish and ate for a long time, the government did not know anything about them, but then already from 1.780 these villages appear in the archival documents of yuri smirnov, there is very important information for

vladimir menshov, he shows vladimir valentinovich the memory book of the astrakhan region it contains information about the peasants who were subjected to repression and dispossession in the first years of soviet power. the book of memory of the astrakhan region includes 25 dubov dispossessed and two repressed. of these, they were shot during a peasant revolt. it’s also interesting who we have alexander dubovsky, let’s see the factory alexei was not alexander no. alexander this is some kind of already dispossessed. here he was dispossessed. i think that this is the same alexander in march 1919, a wave of peasant uprisings swept through the astrakhan province, people's discontent was caused by the policy of war communism. christina was forbidden to trade her products, bread and food. they were

seized by force, such measures led to an open rebellion against the current government, as a result , five communists were killed in the astrakhan village of kamyzyak. in response, repressions followed, because of astrakhan a punitive detachment was sent to the villages ; there was a dark line. mom told me what kind of uprising she somehow indirectly didn’t understand everything, but she told how the bolsheviks first killed the communists in bloody uprisings, yes, and then they came and started these started. yes, basically everywhere. what did they do under the ice rafted. here it is yes communists. she saw it before her eyes, punitive detachments. they shot part of the peasant and shot them, we don’t know them,

because if everything sharp was shot like that, they just frightened not so long ago near astrakhan was discovered as the site of a mass execution of peasants during the nineteenth year point. there was a large rubbish dump, under which was hidden a ditch filled with people's machines. now, a cross has been erected in memory of those executed at this place. local resident tatyana kubekova was the first to call for the reburial of all those shot together with her husband vyacheslav, they restored the names of the victims. blood massacre. this list also includes a peasant with the surname dubovskaya , vladimir menshov's sister irina learns about this because of the astrakhan newspapers and together they come to kubekov. the excavations were done. look, all the teeth are still intact, people were not very old. these are all the nineteenth year. well, yes, this is kamyzyaki. this is a reburial from a bullet. here they are bullets,

look, here are green ones. but you knew where the place yes where and it was good there in general, it's just that there it turned into this place a dump. at their own expense, kubekov made a tombstone with a complete list of the names of the executed peasants. it will be installed on their grave and everyone will be able to see if their ancestors are 32 people here. here here are all the names. we will not find the ends on them. it is necessary to climb into such wilds to raise some archives of the 19th century, that maybe the mouth somehow branched there, and most likely so, because i think that all of them should be partly native. yes. i think from the day, of course, in the country that survived the revolution, the civil war

, there are often thousands of mass graves, nameless in them, perhaps our ancestors lost forever. vladimir valentinovich finally receives an answer from the astrakhan fsb personal file of his father, an employee state security. valentina menshova cannot be extradited; it has not been declassified. the personal file on an operative contains a lot of data, but do not expect to be familiarized with materials on the agents with whom he worked on the operational event in which he participated and on the residencies where he acted abroad. this information is secret. but vladimir menshov does not let go of his hand, he personally turns to the department of the fsb astrakhan aleksandrovich vladimir

valentinovich and is allowed to familiarize himself with part documents and made his father, on which there is no stamp and secrecy. this case. studying the personal file of his father, vladimir menshov makes unexpected discoveries, it turns out that valentin menshov was awarded many awards for his service and even became a holder of the order of the red star. what merits of his father were marked by such a high award vladimir valentinovich hopes to find out at a meeting with colleagues of his younger older father the order of the red star, firstly, in my opinion, never a star for military merit for the defense of the caucasus for thirty

germany 30 years uh red army the order of the red star was established in 1930, they were awarded for great merits in the defense of the union of the ussr in wartime , the order was delivered for personal courage and courage in battles, as well as for skillful leadership of military operations after the great patriotic war of the war, the order of the red star for many years remained the only high award that was awarded to the military in peacetime, as they say, bones. this was our brother. he was a man of a really calm nature. he filled out the same task, search, lord, i still have such an opinion about him, but there was even some kind of operation where he was noted, there premium received,

as in identifying the american agent, in my opinion, some kind of operation, you don’t remember it. well , remember stepanovich was detained on one of the ships, that is, on suspicion from a photograph, that is, with the help of our secret apparatus, so to speak, a man was detained, and he turned out to be similar, similar to a criminal being sought, and we detained him in a preliminary detention cell. they came to identify him, where he worked miracles , brutal miracles, and that's for it. and i was promoted and yours. well, there the word spy is used. he was a traitor. now they gave me a hand, at least to hold

the personal father's business. i don't think he kept it himself. in hand. yes, yes, yes, i learned a lot of interesting things, i must say a lot. here, i don’t know how it is, it’s not specifically chekist not that. it’s just him, but he didn’t tell anything about his relatives, unlike his mother, who was always the whole saga, so this family, they are from chagans. there large family, father. gave very little information. one of the most important days, he first learns information about the family of his father, who no longer hoped to find. our parents owned

it didn't like to talk about her past, to be honest, uh. it was difficult to interrogate the parents to find out their biographies. know your grandparents. now i have been handed over. my father's personal file, which he himself never held in his hands. naturally, i first learned the patronymic of my grandfather. because it is clear that he was michael well he is mikhail mikhailovich i found out, only now what was the name of my paternal grandmother. i also first learned mikhailovich menshov and agrippina dmitrievna pakho parents valentina menshov date of birth unknown dates of death 1933 and 34 grandfather and grandmother of vladimir menshov i learned

a lot of new things, but in this case it was emotionally very powerful. well, to be honest. i saw my father's biography written in his own hand when he joined this organization. he was the captain's mate on the ship, but he was offered and it was an offer not to be refused. it means to go to this organization and he has many interesting things . his father's family lived in trusov, in this district of astrakhan, today vladimir menshov found out that his grandfather mikhail mikhailovich sailed as a boatswain on the volga ships, and then went to the

fire department, only now it becomes clear. why did the father often show this old fire engine to vladimir valentinovich's sister irina in childhood ? tower. this was the fire department. in which our grandfather mikhail mikhailovich menshov worked, the lunch counter. now the pumps are standing before this tower was to monitor the fires. it is possible that he was waiting for us there, standing in a helmet and looking at his father’s personal file . discovering another smaller family secret. it turned out that his grandfather mikhail mikhailovich and grandmother agrippina dmitrievna died in the early thirties , while their son valentin umenchov was already over 20 years old, and so he was not an orphan in the full sense of the word, as he always believed vladimir valentinovich they lived somewhere nearby,

and he showed us, but in my opinion, he showed us some kind of two-story house. no, i don’t remember at all. i remember some small houses standing nearby. here you can still shoot from life, ostrovsky district, trusovo, where valentin menshov spent his childhood, the usual outskirts of a port city to escape from such an environment. it was always very difficult to have great luck, it was considered to be a sailor on some ship father of vladimir valentinovich. i managed to achieve more, we rode, we were also amazed, of course, father this here. selfetman is a self-made person, because he pulled himself out of it. moreover, not only himself, he was her. a person who really did it to himself , it turns out that many of us did it

themselves. well, this can certainly be considered, if so, to draw, some kind of parallels are so genetic that there is in me this quality for sure, as if from dad and a in dad, apparently, from his dad, a folk saying an apple does not fall far from an apple tree scientific justification. appearance physical data mental health. transmitted ancestors to descendants through genes is a segment of the dna chain molecule, the main custodian of hereditary information. each day determines the sequence of amino acids in one of the proteins. and this leads to the manifestation of certain signs , scientists suggest that gene sets determine not only hair color and body structure, but also how a person shows his emotions. this may mean that an explosive temperament or a tendency to melancholy can also be inherited. i remember our first your first film in my place.

i saw him little by little. we go to the cinema. we watch a movie at each other, we don’t look at each other during the movie. we leave and the cinema is opposite us, you remember, we go and after going halfway we get. has come has called in cash desk, speaks is. they say yes we will come. let's go, yes, then we've already figured it out. he generally praised from me, not often

praised. yes, we are somehow not sentimental at all. he was a man, and uh, only towards old age. yes wrote down such a sixty-second year fiftieth birthday wrote a letter such a happy birthday work to him managed to find the lost information about their ancestors. and now he is returning home to share this knowledge appeared his own family tree. information about the relatives found, its new branches, growing and intertwining, recreate the

history of the genus. this is how our village is to say that we have gone deep deep. yes, we are a darurika. we just calculated. some kind of tatar-mongol is impossible, since it is still all astrakhan. and nobles. yes, i think that ours were a choice, it calms me down, that's all only 50,000 years ago there were only 2,000 cro-magnon people on the whole earth, on the whole earth 2,000

people. so all people are brothers, and some are even sisters, but it is important to start now, because it will be more difficult for your descendants, having learned a lot about their ancestors, vladimir menshov realized that he was only at the very beginning of the journey and stopped. he does not intend it important to tell his grandchildren. this is my story. we are in my dressing room now at the moscow city council theater and in just a few minutes i will go to play a role in life that can be, there is the biggest performance, too. each of us plays a role. and this is an endless chain of possibly disorderly events that we do not understand, after all. after some time, it turns into the history of the family.

i need my family tree in order to understand who i am on this earth, to become a personality and pass this line of life to my children. olga ostroumova, one of the most feminine theater actresses , starred in dozens of films about steel business cards, and the dawns here are quiet and we’ll live until monday, millions of fans immediately appreciated the appearance of the actress, atypical for soviet cinema, delicate facial features, combined with blond hair and mysterious, slightly slanting eyes. was born on september 21

, 1947 in buguruslan, the daughter of mikhail ostroumov and natalia kudashova on the website of our program, olga mikhailovna receives her first advice. searches are best started with a conversation with close relatives. usually, when people want to know more about their ancestry, they do not turn to their parents, but, unfortunately, my parents are not, and therefore i decided to turn to my children olya and mikhail ostroumova's son, mikhail, is in charge of the family's archives; it is he who keeps all the albums, documents and letters ; what secret does the family book written by her father keep, what was her grandfather the priest condemned for, and how can one establish kinship with a person from a photograph? and i

brought photographs, because my dad took pictures all his life and look, and everything is very neat, here is the album of the forty-sixth fifty-third year. i'm not yet was born, even at 46. oh, this photo just our whole family. so i want to tell you that this bag - it's me kolya. come out. my dad was the choir director in the church choir, my mother sang there. that's how they met. uh-huh and then my grandmother was against it. well, as it were, very unhappy that dad chose his wife. my grandmother, your mother, has some kind of dark origin, if they are correct, i just have a peasant origin, olga ostroumova 's parents met in the village of alekseevka. kudashova knows almost nothing. natalya kudashova was born on september 21, 1912 in the village of

alekseevka, olga ostroumova's mother mikhail ostroumov was born on december 1, 1910 in the village of alekseevka, olga ostroumova's father olga ostroumova remembers that her parents got married in spite of the dismissal of their fathers, but this olga does not know why this happened mikhailovna it remains to be seen. that is, this is a priestly surname, yes, because, uh, grandmother is the wife of grandfather yes, father alexei, she was from uh, such a priestly family. she had a father the priest is everything, and grandfather was, in my opinion, the son of some deacon, but grandmother was like that. i would not say that a domineering woman is a very strict woman and idolized her grandfather and simply took care of her. here is your grandmother antonina, she was from the village of sorochinskaya, it was at the same time the headquarters of pugacheva emelyanovich pugacheva and she was a cossack in her own right. you just don't know that there is a stanitsa in sorochinsk, at least if she is a cossack from there.

antonina dokina yes, she lived in a merchant's village, syrochinskaya, as the daughter of a priest she was brought up in a diocesan school, where she met alexei ostroumov, unlike the others, the ostroumov family was not rich, nevertheless antonina married alexei was born on december 6 , 1887, olga ostroumova’s grandmother, the experts of our program noticed that olga astroumova bears little resemblance to his parents, but almost a copy of his grandmother antonina, it turns out that the outward resemblance to the ancestors can be transmitted through the centuries. some of us may well be an absolute external clone of our own a distant relative who lived, for example, five centuries ago. our expert decided to compare the photo of olga ostroumova with the photo of antonina dokina with her grandmother and granddaughter. surprisingly similar, the oval of the face, the cut of the eyes, and the shape of the nose, but

professionals pay attention, not only to the obvious signs of similarity for comparing e objects, it is very important to identify signs that are called biological symmetry ; . i would even say to some extent it decorates, noticed, including art historians. it is necessary to identify the repetition of this asymmetry. in particular. here we can reveal the repetition of asymmetry. e in the location of the contours of the eyebrows. this is the state of the alae of the nose, it is also very characteristic and is also repeated in people who are in blood. can be easily removed. wrinkles change the shape of the nose and narrow the waist at the beginning of the last century, instead of photoshop, the photographer used retouching in order to hide some features of the face . proved that the photograph of olga's grandmother

witty antonina dokina was made from 1901 to 1903. photos are heavily retouched. and this complicates the work of our expert. the fact is that these pictures plus everything back in those years they were retouched and what may have been individual with antonina's grandmother, it was removed with the help of a flying one. the expert is looking for characteristic features that appear in the faces of people of the same blood. it is not surprising that olga ostroumova looks like her grandmother, but using this method, you can establish the relationship of people, when it is in doubt or there is no possibility for dna examination, but in the appearance of olga witty, the expert also finds something special. i think that there is still something of her own individual olga mikhailovna who made it possible, uh, to become an actress, and i would say that the face of the screen is the face of the screen of that woman who is a very bright

representative of her generation and, uh, always attracts attention, when it appears on the screen. well, olga ostroumova's family has a lot of mysterious pages. our heroine hopes that in her search will be helped by one very important document, which has been kept in the family for several decades before her death in 1988. her father decided to tell his children the history of the family, and the repressed relatives about the ancestors of the priests about the persecution that their mouths were subjected to, he wrote a book, typed only four copies on a typewriter and distributed to the children his son george and daughters raisa lyudmila and olga volumes vary. you can limit it to a short essay. can you become an author? a major literary work, the structure of the

family book can also be different, but as a rule, information about each branch of your family tree. it is best to arrange in chronological order, the basis of the family book, documentary, information and photographs, but it certainly should reflect the family tradition , of course, in cases where it does not contradict. eh, documents. at the family book. there may be several authors of records about the history of the family, begun by the ancestors will be continued by descendants in the next generations, which my dad wrote for us his children. we have four. yes, it's called a book. confession of the stepson of parcels river, because you know the son of a priest. these are very people. they were expelled from everywhere with their mother at 12:24. so he wrote it himself, bound it, and to each child like this. uh, yes, this is the book. i want you to read. from this place from this place here is a girl here in the

preface, as if writing. will the memories of the life of an unremarkable person have any meaning for his descendants? as for the descendants, i can not say with certainty. but for my children and grandchildren, my writings may be something interesting and useful. at least they will know their genealogy not in an exemplary way, who received the most meager fragmentary information about their grandfathers and grandmothers. quite recently, olga mikhailovna found out that all four copies of her father's book differ from each other by chance , in a telephone conversation with her brother georgy, it turned out that some chapters were missing in olga's book. but they are in the version of george and vice versa, the same thing happened with the books of the sisters raisa and lyudmila why did the father hand out incomplete versions of the book to the children? this is olga ostroumova. it remains to be seen how many children did your grandfather

alexei the priest have? there were two sons and a daughter, aunt lida, and why they did not become sons of priests . the signal for mass repression was lenin's letter to a member of the politburo, written in 1922, than a greater number of representatives reactionary bourgeoisie reactionary clergy. we will be able to shoot on this occasion, so much the better by may 1, 1937, according to the plan of the union of atheists, the name of god was to become forgotten throughout the territory of the ussr from 1918 to 1940, the number of clergymen was almost halved. he is tough, yes, yes, in the

thirty-eighth year he was repressed. why was olga ostroumova's grandfather arrested? why were relatives against her parents' marriage? and what is still written in the family books of the witty brother and sisters the answer to these questions olga mikhailovna goes to look for the city where she spent her childhood in samara the story of the witty family this story of gatherings and moving each time getting to a new place and getting a job olga mikhailovna's father in the column of origin wrote from a family of peasants, but soon the deceit was revealed and having collected things the family the son of a repressed priest left the city in 24 hours, olga ostroumova’s father bore the stigma of deprivation for a long time, some groups of the population were deprived of the right to vote, including clergy, that is, all the clergy, the successor father, and all his dependents, the present generation has no idea of ​​the

condition of these so-called dispossessed. in the soviet union, from 1918 to 1936, citizens who had voting rights were called disenfranchised. according to the constitutions of the rsfsr of 1918 and 1925, persons who resorted to hired labor for the purpose of making a profit, private merchants, monks and ministers of the church, who lived on unearned income, could not be elected and elected. the constitution of the rsfsr, adopted in 1937, returned voting rights to the deprived. however, in the soviet questionnaires filled out when applying for a job, the item remained. did you lose the right to vote when and for what the uniqueness of the pope, here i am all the time i think the lord is all good. i owe only to my parents. i remember he says that in magnitogorsk the nkvd officer turned out to be a good person.

that is, he gave i have 24 hours to get ready, and 48. you see, it means that he is a good person. that's how they valued people, it's something incredible. thanks a lot, goodbye. samara is one of the most beautiful cities on the banks of the volga in its olga mikhailovna's father writes a lot in the book. kuibyshev was the name of samara from 1935 to 1991. mikhail ostroumov recalls that at that time many plants and factories were being built in the city. he finds a teaching job here and finally buys his own house in samara olga mikhailovna has to find out. what is the difference between the family books of her brother and sisters, whom taina married her grandfather, and

what kind of foktlander saved when you her family? as a child, he was the main defender of olga's sister, after graduating from the institute, he worked in kazakhstan for baikonur cosmodrome is now engaged in the construction of cableways born november 19, 1945 in buguruslan brother olga ostroumova. a little later they will arrive in samara, the sisters olga and georgy raisa and lyudmila, they will get together and unite and four parts of the family book. in the meantime, olga mikhailovna finds in georgy's version one of the chapters in which her father is not in her copy, writes about how his daughter, the future actress olga ostroumova, was born. in the spring of 1947,

signs appeared that our family would increase again, and indeed on september 21st. natasha she brought another girl, who was called olga, she was surprisingly vocal, but george was silent until the age of 2, and then the words rained down like peas from a thin bag, and the stubborn one in kindergarten made sure that he and olga were placed in one group. me this photo is perfect. i remember, it was enlarged and hung over my mother's bed, or something, wonderful. i have a wonderful one. oh, what's the photo? yes, my dad took pictures. zoykiy, i even remember that this is my father's apparatus. it's my god witty a lot of family photo albums of younger children, georgy and olga were filmed, especially often. after all, they were born after the war, when a trophy

camera appeared in the family. fort-lander more than once this camera rescued them in the difficult post-war years, literally saving olga mikhailovna's mother natalya kudashova from starvation, she earned money by taking pictures of people in the city park. natasha took a patent to take photographs, she worked with a fordlander camera, filmed 9 by 12 and used x-ray film on plates, which was then easier to get than plates, paper was bought from passing trains. the thirties were called a masterpiece. all the main design ideas of photographic equipment were implemented in it. it was a camera. a dream is a lens thanks to which the camera is immediately ready for use. it's a uh rangefinder that gives uh near-perfect

focus. and, of course, a photo exposure meter camera. very rare, very expensive, but the fame of it instantly spread all over the world, as soon as vocht-lender was released in firms in the thirties , and the promenade camera on the international market fort-lender appeared in the soviet union after trophy cameras could be bought at flea markets, they cost a fortune, but at that time people saved literally on everything, but not on photography, absolutely everything was addicted , photographs were just raving people of the older generation, there are probably not a single one among them a person who, to one degree or another, was not fond of photography, that photography lovers just didn’t come up with to improve their cameras, assembled lenses on their own, used film for x-rays,

invented new tripods. they left to posterity the most precious legacy of hundreds of photographs in family albums. oh, but remember this, this little arch or grotto? i don’t even know, let’s go olga and georgy ostroumova decide to find the grotto where their parents once photographed them, but they are brother and sister don’t remember exactly. where is it. maybe ? remember olga mikhailovna succeeds. she finds the same grotto not far from the embankment, look. i don't understand full length, see gerberg.

oh, water, cold, probably, come on, press on the other side. oh, what kind of jet? after meeting my brother olga ostroumova continues her search, since her ancestors were priests, the experts of our program advise olga mikhailovna to contact the diocesan archive or museum before the revolution. the russian orthodox church created an effective system for storing documents by decree of the holy synod on january 19 , 1864,

archival commissions were opened at the spiritual consistories. they revealed on his face and in historical terms the documents of the later holy synod, obliged the dioceses to compile their historical and statistical descriptions. it gave a powerful stimulus for the development of diocesan archives by the end of the 19th century, the archives of the holy synod and the orthodox church numbered more than 400,000 files. today there are several million. if your ancestor served in the church, then information about him. you can find in the clearing records the clearing records a very valuable document for genealogical research. it contains basic information about the clergyman, date and place of birth , formation of the position of the place of service of the award. whether he owned movable property or land. did the trial provide additional information about the spiritual the person can be found in the diocesan provincial lists, which were published in most provinces of pre-revolutionary russia and the diocesan address of the calendar, if your ancestor was a

priest or clergyman of the soviet time, then in order to get information about him, you need to send a request to the appropriate and proteal artist. the samara diocesan church history museum contains ancient icons, documents and unique photographs of temples destroyed in the thirties, the director of the museum shows olga witty albums with photographs of graduates and teachers of the samara seminary on some photographs, the names of ostroumovs are ostroumovs, in general. e, priests often have surnames. the fact is that in the 19th century, e in the 19th century, it turned out that the pupils of the surname did not exist until the middle of the 19th century, except for nobles or prominent citizens, and therefore surnames usually from the middle of the 19th century were given in fact to the clergy. they were talking. representatives of the clergy began to receive surnames only at the end of the 18th century; as a rule, they were

assigned to students of theological seminaries by bishops. most of the surnames of the priests ended in ski often. they gave the clergy the names of the churches in which they were in the service, so deaconized, those who served in the trinity church could receive the surname. surnames are formed from the names of all the most important holidays. the annunciation god ivlensky vvedensky, some surnames were given, taking into account the character traits of the clergyman, for example, myagkov veselov or wit. in the diocesan museum olga mikhailovna receives information not only about priests with you or wits, but for the first time she sees unique photographs of her grandfather. the church where the priest alexei ostroumov served is located near samara in the city of buguruslan, where the parents of our heroine olga mikhailovna lived and decides to

go to buguruslan, the city of buguruslan, 180 km from samara olga ostroumova's homeland in 1936 and oil was found here. and this event in an instant turned the life of the city of buguruslan into a major industrial center. but at the beginning of the 20th century, no one suspected the coming changes in the life of the quiet city. it was then that a new priest appeared in one of the local churches. it was olga's grandfather alexei ostroumov. we are in the buguruslan district, where father alexei served, he was also a dean and put a lot of work for this temple. it turned out that in buguruslan they remember not only grandfather and ostroumova's parents, but also her uncle nikolai after

the arrest of olga mikhailovna's grandfather alexei ostroumov. both of his sons, mikhail and nikolai, were forced to drop out of school and return to their homeland. i'm at home i met my older brother, nikolai, who shortly before my arrival was thrown out of the third year of the kazan art school, as an alien element. in order not to waste time and acquire some specialty, he entered paid correspondence courses for draftsmen, fortunately. they have not yet guessed to demand documents on social origin and the right to vote. from parishioners , olga ostroumova learns that after being expelled from the art school, her uncle nikolai ostroumov painted the dome of the assumption church in buguruslan father vladimir leads witty to the grave of her grandfather olga mikhailovna remembers that this place used to look different, it turns out that recently a new cross was put on the grave buguruslane honors the memory

of alexei ostroumov, as the veterans, grandmothers, elderly people say, he was amazing because e to him , basically tried to get in, believers in confession because the person was very spiritual. thank you for such words. i will put flowers. grandfather, but alexey petrovich ostroumov of the grave, the archpriest of this church, a wonderful one, died, in in 1963, he was summoned to the authorities, and he had a stroke, he was already in his eighties, 70 years old, and well,

after all, after the camps, he simply won’t be able to stand it, now no one will know what priest alexei ostroumov heard on that fateful day, but parishioners remember that in the early sixties they tried to close the church again and believe that father alexei died defending his church. the fate of olga mikhailovna's parents, her mother natalya kudashova, and father mikhail are connected with the assumption church in buguruslan. witty met precisely here in the church choir. oh, i asked people to come to god first and only then they have a desire to sing in church, not all members of the choir have a musical education to add their voice to prayer. maybe a professional singer and a simple parishioner in different years. such great performers as ivan kozlovsky drank in the church mountains antonina nezhdanova fyodor chaliapin leads the church choir regen. this person not only

conducts rehearsals, but also engages in musical the education of singers. elena usynina created this choir in the buguruslan church in 1991. now her daughter sings here too. mother elena, like olga ostroumova's parents, met her husband father vladimir in the church choir. even in samara, olga ostroumova learns from her brother that his version of the family book contains such a curious story. in 1929, their parents, mikhail ostroumov and natalia kudashova, got married and the ceremony was a secret. the pope came to the church one otppper door waiting for our inside the temple, and then try to be slipped in unnoticed, and we performed the ceremony in accordance with all the rules, only without any witnesses. now we have become husband and wife, not only by civil law, but also by the command

of god. mikhail ostroumov describes in detail the church marriage ceremony, but does not say a word about why there was no one else in the church except his bride and father, who performed the ceremony . maybe the parents of natalia kudashova were against the christian marriage of their daughter. who were these, where did the relatives of our heroine's grandmother and grandfather go? olga ostroumova, decides to find the house where her family lived in buguruslan, she knows the exact address. she hopes for those who can remember her relatives. this is nagornaya street where where we used to come all the time to my grandparents, they had such a large yard garden, well, of course, everything has changed, and here it is a house. the address is the same. but the house is not the same , everything is not at all like the house was. and nagornaya itself was not asphalt, but was just an earthen

road. alas, there was no one left on nagornaya street. no one who would remember the witty family is now alone. hope for the samara archive. maybe the necessary information is stored there, before leaving buguruslan olga mikhailovna decides to go to the local theater. this place is symbolic for the island , it is here that she decided to become an actress. because that theater is said to have burned down. but i entered my five years in that theater, it was my first theater of life. let's go to this one. scene

ah take a picture. okay, let's go over here. i am the tallest, you can smile when we drove in, now from the film crew in buguruslan, i just pointing out where to go. i absolutely remember everything. yes, although the last time i was here was 20 years ago. that's right. that's because there are landmarks for the city garden. and you know, in my childhood, a girl and her grandmother lived on nagornaya street and the sounds of a wind orchestra were heard in the garden in the evenings, and firemen played. you don’t know, it was grandiose after meeting with the actors ostroumova returns to samara, where i finally have to find out from what century the mouth of the ostroumovs has been stretching, what

her grandfather, the priest, hid from her grandfather. bolshevik. which wealth amassed by her parents? returning to samara, olga ostroumova is sent to the central state archive of the samara region , it is here that all the surviving information about olga mikhailovna’s relatives is collected, the date of birth and death of the place of service or work of the award, all this data can be obtained by sending a request to the archive of the city where your ancestors lived. the request to the archive should be short and clear. indicate all information about the wanted relative, whom you have his date and place of birth of death, where when he lived, he studied work. if we are talking about pre-revolutionary times, then it is best to indicate the class affiliation, because before the revolution , information on different classes of nobles, merchants , burghers or peasants, accumulating in different institutions, in the request should also indicate that

you have documents confirming your relationship with a different person and guarantee the payment of archive services. olga mikhailovna these are deeds that contain obedient lists, and this is the service of your ancestors, and this is the deed of your service ancestors from the side of the witty, my grandmother threw it off from the side of the dokins. oh my god, my spirit is captured in the samara archive by olga ostroumova, amazing discoveries await. she recognizes her family tree since 1815, it turns out that the ancestors of her grandmother antonina dokina, whom olga mikhailovna is so similar to, were also priests. but most importantly, ostroumova receives information about her mother’s relatives natalya kudashova, after reading these documents, our heroine finally understands why her parents married in secret

grandfather pyotr kudashov was a bolshevik, he established soviet power in the orenburg region and actively fought against the church. so in 192 in the fifth year, priest alexei ostroumov married his son to the daughter of the secretary of the regional executive committee, of course, natalya kudashova's parents could not agree to this marriage, and yet natalya did not obey her relatives. she married for love, gave birth to four children and shared the difficult fate of her husband. i remember, dad writes that they drove them from somewhere in the same way in 24 hours. and in some i don’t remember the city they arrived, because there were many cities. and your legs were paralyzed by nerves , and here he was carried from the train on a stretcher. but when you plunge headlong like this, you think, my god. and you could handle it all. olga mikhailovna about the fate of your grandfather alexei

petrovich, a request was made to the fsb department for the orenburg region, and now we received an answer to it. this is a sentence, according to which alexei petrovich was sentenced to 10 years. for the dissemination of counter-relational propaganda under article 58.10 part the first of the criminal code of the rsfsr for 10 years in prison, followed by a loss of rights for 5 years. but nevertheless, he pleaded not guilty and, in fact , was sentenced to 10 years. uh, not admitting her guilt from archival documents, olga mikhailovna learns that her grandfather alexei ostroumov was born on june 1, 1992. was posthumously rehabilitated about it all i witty no one knew. when writing a family

history, it is often necessary to look for information about rehabilitated relatives , you should start the search in those places where your the relative was sentenced or where he served his sentence for this, you should apply with a request to the local information center of the internal affairs bodies at the place of repression, if there is no information there. you will not find you should send a written request to the main information and analytical center of the ministry of internal affairs or to the central archive of the fsb of russia . finally, i am at the house where my brother, my two sisters and four copies of my father's book have gathered. ostroumova, sisters olga raisa and lyudmila, all the sisters are also witty, none of them changed their last name and all with their own copies of the manuscript that their father bequeathed to them. now they can be combined into one book the history of their kind. oh, i brought you something. well, come on,

is the conclusion, this is already june 1, 1992 . so he has been rehabilitated. this is, uh, evidence of aviation. well, i don’t know how, that is, it’s just a gift and in some degree i speak with great hmm achieved their goal and now four books came together and we weakly gathered together so he finishes the book, peering into the past and remembering the past years. i think that, nevertheless, i lived a happy life, and most importantly, my luck was an invaluable acquisition of support in all the vicissitudes of fate, my faithful friend of life, natasha, all our wealth , beautiful loving children, to whom i dedicate this work. for the first time, all these books that were
