1. I found out about the Sakhnovsky family when I was shown a code of arms from “ Malorossiyskiy collection of Codes of Arms” by V.K Lukomskiy anf V.L. Modzalevskiy (p. 160, table XY) and asked if I know anything about it. Before this I only knew that my ancestors from my father’s side of the family are from the Chernigov region [of what is now Ukraine], that they belonged to clegy, and that my great-grandfather was a priest from village of Ladinka, about 35 km from CHernigov towards Kiyv. I knew that my grandfather, Alexander Ivanovich Sakhnovskiy, who was born in 1879 in the village called Korilskoe of Krolevetskiy District of Chernigovskaya Province, graduated from Chernigovskaya ++++++ and in 1995 the Yaroslavkiy College, receiving a degree in Law. His brother, Ivan Ivanovich Sakhnovskiy graduated from the faculty of Law of Kazanskiy University. After graduating from the college my grandfather started preaching in Ponevezhes town in Lithuania, where my father, Konstantin Aleksandrovich Sakhnovskiy, was born. According to the records of the time, my grandfather was a Ditrict Representative Member in Kovensky Regional Court, later a judge and коллежским ассесором. After the Revolution, having lost his job and having to support a family of six, my father became a priest in the same village of Ladinka after the death of my grandfather in 1921. After the government’s repressions against the church he left his job as a priest and made money as a craftsman/handyman, deliveryman, clerk, etc. As I found out later, starting 1929, my grandfather was in a ++++ for three years in Arkhangelskaya Region.
2. Searching the Internet, I have unexpectedly found the family records of Yuriy Ivanovich Palkin., which included a reference to the Sakhnovskiy family line. His records include wide array of information on one of the branches Palkin family, based on the numerous references to historical documents, showing the blood connection of the family with the famous families of Gudovich, Rubtsov, Zabel, and Novitskiy. Short description of these families are also given in his records. In addition, a family of Sakhnovskiy was found in the Harkovskaya District in 1810, according to the “RDK” section of Palkin’s records; the records also mention Anatoliy Vasilievich Sakhnovskiy (D/8), who was included in “The New Genealogical Book of Russian Noblity”. In the reference to Sakhnovskiy family these people were found: - Sakhnovsky Nikolai Ivanovich, who is currently living in Argentina. Wrote and published a book “Holy Russia. The Short History of Russian Orthodox Empire”. N.I.Sakhnovski is one of the organizers of the Russian Imperial Union-Society and a publisher. - Sakhnovski Yuriy Sergeevich – Russian composer, born in 1866. - Sakhnovskiy – Modern poet in the Ural region Further search was performed and is currently performed based on materials: - Yuriy Sergeevich Palkin - Duke G.A. Miloradovich “Genealogical Book of Chernigov Noblility”, St.Petersburg 1901, vol. 2, part 6, pp.179-182 “Sakhnovskie” - Feodosiy Makarevskiy “Materials on Historic and Statistical Description of Ekaterinoslavskoi Dioceses XYIII century.” Reissue 2000 based on the original work published in 1880. - Various historical literature, calendar-references and other sources.
3. According to vice-chairman of Dnepropetrovskiy Historical Museum, V.M.Beketova, who is researches codes of arms of nobility, the code of arms of the Sakhnovskiy Family is an example of a family of a military family. First records of Sakhnovskiy family appear in the beginning of the 17th century. Kozak-Foreman family, included in the 6th part of “RDK” [Ancient noble families who can prove their belonging to nobility for at least a century before the date of the release of the proclamation (1785)]
The founder of the Sakhnovskiy family (according to the references available today) is believed to be Safoniy Sakhnenko (Sakhnovich), who lived until 1650. His sons, - Grigoriy Safontievich – was a colonel in Mirgorod, he participated in Pereyaslovskaya Convention in 1653. He was a member of the Embassy of getman B.Hmelnitskiy to Moskow, and a member of Buturlin commission.
- Vasiliy Safontievich was town ataman (городовым атаманом) in Mensk from 1672 until 1977. His son Ignatiy Vasilievich was (сотником ) in 1681 – 96, became town ataman (городовым атаманом) in Mensk in 1693, (полковым обозным) in Chernigov in 1722-32, colonel later. For his loyal service he was awarded the highest +++++++ by Peter the Great (Peter I) and given a noble status and property in villages of Velichkovka and Feskovka in Sosnitskiy District (G.A. Miloradovich “Genealogical Book of Chernigov Noblility”) The next generations of Sakhnovsky family in 1700s were colonels, (сотниками, городовыми атаманами) in KIselev, Berezin, SOsnitskiy, Mensk, Mirgorodsk districs, and also occupied important positions in the Chernigov and Poltava military and civil hierarchy: the commander of Chernigovskiy (полк), бунчуковый товарищ, (полковой judge, general judge, Генеральный есаул, Сосницкий предводитель дворянства) In 1800s, many members of the family were in the military service, at many levels, from sargant to (мичмана, прапорщика, подпоручика, кончая полковником) to general-major. As for the civil service, positions from (коллежского ассесора) to the vice-governor of the Chernigovskiy District were occupied. Just in the RDK of Cernigov Noblility in the family line of Sakhnovski, beginning at Ivan Vasilievich Sakhnovskiy, (the son of Vasiliy Safontievich Sakhnenko), who was born approximately in 1660, until the end of 1800s 108 men and 30 women were recorded. According to the records, women began to be recorded to RDK starting in 1820, and even then , not all of them were accounted for. Also, the women that did not continue the official family line, did nothave their official identification number. It also needs to be noted that the families, as a rule, had many kids – up to ten and even more in the family (my great-grnadfather had two sons and six daughters). It is most probable that the transformation for the family name from Sakhnenko to Sakhnovskiy was linked to the fact that at the time about 40 thousand kossaks were serving in the Lithuanian-Polish Princestry and close relations with the polish language led to this transformation. It should be noted that the principal occupation of the Sakhnovskiy family was serving the Motherland. They were active participant in most military campaigns of the time. Sakhnovskie were closely related by blood to other noble families, such as Gudovich, Rubtsov, Zabela, Novitskiy, Bezborodko, and also family of Polubotok. The wife of Ivan Ignatievich Sakhnovkiy (1677-1768) was Evdokiya Mikhailovna Zabela Senior (born in 1689).
According to some sources, Grigoriy Sakhnovskiy’s, Colonel in Mirgorod, wife was a daughter of Leontiy Polubotok. The wife of Ivan Mikhailovich Zabela was the granddaughter of L.Polubotok. When Polubotok was imprisoned in the Petropavlovsk Fortress, his family and realtives were repressed by the government. In connection to this, Grigoriy Sakhnovskiy, according to some sourses, changed his last name to Lesnitskiy (because records show that at the same time there was colonel Mirgorod Grigoriy Sakhnovskiy and colonel of Mirgorod Grigoriy Lesnitskiy. It is probable that during this time period some members of Sakhnovskiy family moved to free land in Slobojanshina, which explains the appearance of Sakhnovskiy in Harkov Region and in the books of Harkov noblility in 1810, when the repressions were dying out. Studying “The Description of Ekaterinoslav Diocese of the 18th century” by F.Makarevskiy lead to the discovery of Sakhnovskiy family on Ekaterinoslavshina [or what today is Dniepropertrovsk region of Ukraine]. Pages 198-203 of the abovementioned source in the request of District Secretary Panchinskiy to Slavic Clerical Council 19.04.1789 about appointing a priest to Sloboda Petrovskaya on the Mokraya Sura river(about 35 verst from Karnauhovka) mention the residents of the area surrounding the Sloboda: rotmister Buchinskiy , лейб-гвардии Преображенского полка сержанта Ushakov, Кингсбурского драгунского полка prime-major Tutomlin, captain Vermenka, подпоручика Sakhnovskiy and other landowners. In another request abut setting up a church in Sloboda Ivanovka (Ivanovka Sempirovicheva, Ganno-Zachatovka, Kin-Grust –several existing names for the settlement) on the Mokraya Sura River, Anna Stepanovna Zvyagina notes the nearlying settlements, owned by landowner Leontovich, Captain Sakhnovskiy, Captain Dodatok, прапорщика Ruditskin, captain Chumakovskiy. The appearance of Sakhnovskiy family in the Ekaterinoslavshina Region is most likely caused by the fact that in that particular region military officers were given ранговые дачи – land and residences given as a reward for military service. In the Ekaterinoslavskiy address-calendar of 1915 on p.265 in the village Belenkom of Ekaterinoslavskiy district pries Vasiliy Sakhnovskiy is noted (from the description of populated places of Ekaterinoslavskaya District of 1.01.1925, population of Belenkoe consisted of 4969 people, 5 heat-griven mills, one wind-driven mill and four blacksmith shops. The village was located on the right side of the Dnieper River, its location is now underwater because of the dam in Zaporozhie. All this information needs to be further researched, the major difficulty being the fact that historica ldocuments were only kept in the archive from 1860 and on, according to the director of the Dnepropetrovskiy Regional State Archive. Only a fraction of the documents release earlier still exists.
4. According to my grandfather’s A.I.Sakhnovskiy certificate of birth in 1789, his father, or my great-grandfather was Ivan Konstantinovich Sakhnovskiy, a clergyman in Preobrajenskaya Church in the village Korilskoe in Krolevetskiy district of Chernigovskiy Region. His wife’s name was Tatiana Pavlovna. Porfiriy Konstantnovich sakhnovskiy was a doctor and в восприемниках (т. е. свидетелях) In the RDK of the Chernigov Nobility the only Sakhnovskiy is Konstantin Pavlovich Sakhnovskiy, number 88 in the book, born in 1838. His father, Pavel Ivanovich Sakhnovskiy, captain of artillery was born in 1797 and is listed as number 58 in the RDK. His father’s name was was Ivan Pavlovich Sakhnovskiy, number 37, коллежский асессор, and his grandfather was Pavel Petrovich Sakhnovskiy, number 10, бунчуковый товарищ, the head of Sosnitskiy Nobility in 1782-87гг (all numbers according to RDK). The question arised , why is these such a smll gap between the birth of my grandfather (1879) and Konstantin Pavlovich Sakhnovskiy (1838). Nevertheless, according to the historians, riest married early, right after graduating from the clergical school. In another case, they wouldn’t be able to gather a strong diocese. In this case, it is very probable that Konstantin Pavlovich Sakhnovskiy is my great-grandfather (my middle name is also Konstantinovich, besides). This theory is yet to be proved by legitimate paperwork in the future study. The low number of Sakhnovskiy represented in the RDKin the 1800s is very noticeable. In this century, only eight men out of the fifty-first have their held offices or awards. It can be argued that at the time it was become unpopular to keep the office or an award, or they were insignificant enough in the Saknvskiy family to not keep the record of them. If the assumptions are based on the information available on my branch of the family, there was not enough free land for every member of the family, so some of the Sakhnovskiy had to go to clergy. ON this level the new relationships were formed. The wife of my great-grandfather came from a family of clergy; she was the third out of six girls my great grandfather had that decided to marry a clergyman. The results of the research performed were used to compile the draft of the genealogical tree, which only has one ling not solidly supported by documents – Ivan Konstantinovich Sakhnovski-Igor Konstantinovich Sakhnovskiy.
The research is and will be performed exclusively out of the interest and the respect for such and old and established family such as Sakhnovskiy. The direction of firther study is se toward finding more reliable sources that could shed some light on kossak movement in the 16th century and all the other topics that might be of any use for research of the history of this family. I consider it an honor to study this family line, and I would be glad to cooperate with anyone who is interested in studying the family line of Sakhnovskiy.
