Revolution 1917 Biography
Personal stories. Time slice. No morality and almost no assessment. Even names are unknown. Here, it is not possible to remember about “Ivanov who do not remember kinship”, it is more likely to talk about the gap of generations and family tragedies, which affected, as our improvised historical study showed, almost everyone in Russia. Grandfather survived, although few people succeeded.
On my mother’s line, the ancestors were ordinary peasants, worked. The grandmother had 11 brothers, everyone died at the front during the war.
Russia was a wealthy, rich country, the revolution threw it back for 70 years. Now we are slowly reviving. The whole world left the country. They left nothing valuable, because they were dispossessed. Black -white photos remained. But the greatest value is memories. No need to change the system, it was necessary to change the king. Other people came to power, greedy and greedy, they needed everything, but they were afraid.
There is such a phrase: "Who was nothing, he will become everything." If they would have changed, then Russia would be a great country, although it is now great, but we have lost 70 years. Grandmothers were housewives. When the revolution began, they were all in Georgia, so they were not injured. However, Georgia after the revolution shared individual states. Grandfather from the mother’s side after the army resigned when the Communists came, they were ordinary people, so they were not injured.
The cousins have preserved grandfather's military uniforms of the imperial army. But the most important family relic that my family keeps from those times has got from great -great -grandmother, and maybe further: a prescription of a healing medicine that treats many diseases. I, as a doctor, was interested in studying him, we conducted scientific research.
As a result, several mechanisms of action were discovered in this ointment: antimicrobial, anti -inflable, healing. I am extremely negative about the revolution - not just negatively, but extremely. This is the greatest tragedy of our peoples and a civilizational error. From a medical position, I will say: the entire gene pool of the great nation was destroyed. This should not have been.
There was a great break in the history of mankind, not just in the history of Russia. Vyacheslav Zarenkov President of the Etalon group 3 about the situation during the revolution was mainly told by grandmother Aksinya. She told how she thought. Here, for example, her words that I remembered: “It was bad for the Pan, and after the revolution it was even worse: we lived satisfying, did not starve, and with the advice everything was selected, there was nothing to sow - there was nothing to sink about it.” The paternal grandfather Alexei was a participant in the war and met the revolution, with his words, with great joy.
Grandfather Alexei in the war fell under a gas attack and received poisoning. He returned home the patient and died soon after returning, leaving two children, 8 and 6 years old, in the care of my grandmother Aksinya. The grandfather of Peter did the opposite. He was married and at the time of the revolution had three children. Grandfather was a wealthy peasant, had several acres of land and a solid house on a farm.
He met the revolution with wariness, but also with the hope that the land would be added. Pana left their estates, and many lands were essentially ownerless. Unfortunately, immediately after the revolution, the wife became seriously ill and soon died, leaving three little girls 6, 4 and 2 years old in his care. After 4 months, grandfather married a young girl Anna, and in general, life got better.
Looking ahead, I will say that Anna gave birth to eight children and after the death of her husband all children, and her relatives and consolidated ones, she worthy of raised and raised. I lived 98 years. Father vaguely remembered the revolution, he was only 6 years old at that time. He told how barefoot boys ran down the street and shouted: “We are behind the Bolsheviks, we are for the Bolsheviks Arkady Teplitsky co -owner of the Adamant Holding company 4, one of my grandfathers was a rabbi and lived near Odessa, but her grandfather was a typographic worker and during the revolution in Leningrad itself.
But since I am, there are my children, it means that he survived. In general, this was a great tragedy for everyone, for Russia in particular. Since the war, from the grandfather in the family there have remained a snake and medals for the protection of Leningrad. Both of my grandfathers served on the Leningrad Front, one died from the wounds at 52. The events of that time are a thoughtful financial operation of interested foreign persons.
It was made with the money of the West, made to undermine the Russian system. What is being done now. I think it was possible to avoid her, this should not have happened. This has some weakness of our monarch of a person. We were failed by a historical personality: with all respect and pity for Nikolai, I believe that the leader could not allow those weaknesses and miscalculations that led to the loss of power.
From here we already went terror, revelry and the destruction of a large number of people. Vadim Lapin 5 Grandmother Anna Mikhailovna. At first she worked in one family, then in another, and then she was invited to housekeeping with Adrian Ivanovich Neenin, who was appointed commander of the Baltic Fleet in the year.They invited because the recommendations were very good: he loves children, the character is comfortable, cooks perfectly, and, finally, just a beauty.
Vice -Admiral Neenin was awarded the Order for courage during the defense of Port Arthur, and at the beginning of the First World War organized an effective system for intercepting and deciphering German radio messages. They lived somewhere near Nevsky, the grandmother said that she often went for groceries to Eliseevsky Fua - Grad and other delicacies came there from Paris, but bought meat only in special shops.
In stores, the regiments burst from the products, everyone weighed only in pounds, and the customers were exclusively respectfully - on holidays to regular customers necessarily gave gifts. In general, in the stories of grandmother Petrograd, this is such a beautiful civilized European city: girls in beautiful dresses are walking along the streets brightly lit by windows of restaurants.
At Christmas, the commander’s apartment arranged dinners to which subordinates and colleagues with their wives were invited. Grandma cooked, a lot of recipes from those times have survived: fish under the marinade, stuffed fish, pies, soups, partridges, ducks - what she usually served on the table. I don’t know if it is possible to reproduce it now, but in childhood, when my grandmother was cooking, it was insanely tasty.
Just mad! The war began to be felt only at the end of the year, when interruptions in bread began. And then cheers - patriotism and slogans “All for the Tsar” were replaced by conversations that the king’s wife is a German spy. But what happened later, no one expected: given the Romanov history given, it was believed that they were forever. After the February Revolution, the situation in the city changed sharply: many deserters and refugees appeared, crime has grown sharply, the officers were beaten on the street, the police were killed ...
And the grandmother remembered the moment when Lenin arrived in the city. Rather, Grandfather Andrei Ivanovich went to meet Lenin to the Finland Station, who worked as a master at the Red Vyborzhts before the revolution - St. Petersburg Society of the Major River and Pipe Plant former. There was neither heard nor visible, but the general euphoria was, hoping for a better future, but everything collapsed in just six months.
The sailors were killed by the commander of the Baltic Fleet, his family left for Sevastopol, his grandmother was called with them ... But grandparents decided to move to the homeland of Andrei Ivanovich - to the Karelian village of Ascension. When the Ascension was occupied by the White Fines, they were evacuated to Tatarstan, where grandfather worked as a master at the repair plant, and already from there they moved under the meadow, to the village of Oredezh, where I came in childhood.
My grandmother had a Zinger sewing machine, which she took with her from St. Petersburg. Then I gave this machine to our Restaurant "Marie Vanna". Andrei Lushnikov, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Bess group 6 This is the story of my father Vladimir Lushnikov, who, in turn, recalls his father: “My dad, Veniamin Nikolaevich, was born on February 13 in the village of Sychevo Kurtamysh district of the Kurgan region.
He was the first in a large family in which nine children later became. The Lushnikovs were immigrants from the Cossacks who moved during the time of Catherine II from the Voronezh region. There were only two surnames in the village: the Lushnikovs and Gordeev. By the way, in the Kurgan region there is a village of Lushnikovo. From dad's stories it followed that he had a typical village family.
My grandfather Nikolai Pavlovich was the headman in the church, was wounded in the First World War and was treated in Yekaterinburg, where dad went to him, being a 7-8 -year -old boy. Looking ahead, I’ll say that dad has become the first person in the village to study at the Omsk Zo -Owageurin Institute, which he graduated from the year. Our family was lucky: this specialty ensured a decent existence and the opportunity to get a good education for five of his children.
After the revolution, during the military communism, the prodors seized the “surplus” of food among the peasants. The peasants, escaping from imminent hunger, hid the grain, digging it into the ground. The Land -like, pierced the earth in the yards and gardens with bayonets. Grandfather buried the grain much deeper than he could get the bayonet, and saved the family from hunger.
But if they found grain, then there would be execution in place! Then a commune was organized in the village. The principle of the commune: everything is common, except for the simplest household utensils; Work - as before, but the distribution of the crop or, for example, milk - by ponds. After the short period of enthusiasm, conversations went: these work little, they get a lot. The grandfather’s family with ten mouths carries a full bucket of milk home in the evening, and the neighboring family is only a promotion, although the workers from both families are the same - one or two, not more, and the children are also full of the yard ...
Grandma Anna literally wiped our grandfather with the demands of the commune: the neighbors, they say, were perplexed, they envied ... she could not bear the injustice of similar equations.
