Nobles lived in the village of Belyaevka! Yes, oddly enough, but at least one family lived here, whose noble coat of arms is included in the noble coat of arms of the Russian Empire. The Tolkachev family is an untitled Russian nobleman.

Three golden trefoil Colors are horizontally located on the green field of the shield. 2 from the bottom at the top, and one at the bottom. Between them there were 2 silver Crossings. The shield is crowned with a noble helmet. On it we see a green wing. In the middle part of the wing is a golden trefoil color. Bast green. It is lined with silver and gold. It is included in part 1 (p. 107) of the General Tombstone of the noble families of the All-Russian Empire.

Vladimir Reznik wrote that on September 14, 1891, in the Assumption Church of Belyaevka, the Psalmist Ivan Grigoryev Ugrinovich, together with his wife Sofia Ivanovna, baptized their newborn daughter Sofia. Parents were Orthodox. The daughter was born on the second of September. The clerks were the clergy of the Assumption Church Gavriil Semenovich Sinitsky and the nobleman Vasily Tolkachev's wife Zinovia Illarionovna.

That is, as we see, there are references to a noble family in Belyaevka. At the same time, for the first time they begin to talk about him in 1521. Then Fedor Efidovia Tolkachev fled to Lithuania with Prince Ryazan Ivan Ivanovich. He transferred to Russian citizenship after Lithuania was incorporated into the Russian state.

Assumptions about the appearance of a noble family in Belyaevka

Unfortunately, there are no reliable data on exactly how the nobles appeared in Belyaevka. According to one version, it turns out that, most likely, Vasily served in these parts. After the service, the family decided to settle in Belyaevka. But there is a possibility that Vasily belongs to the impoverished branch of the genus.

Old-timers say that the most beautiful noble house was located on the spot where the police station is now located. Every evening, Zinovia Illarionovna made a promenade. She walked along the main street of the village with dogs. Local gossips did not miss the moment, so as not to joke about this action of the noblewoman.

There is another story. In place of the modern stadium, a cemetery was previously located. It was here that the Tolkachev family crypt was built. After it was decided to close the cemetery, the crypt began to be dismantled. In the coffin, under the pillow of one of the deceased, a bottle of Smirnovskaya was found. It is not yet clear why such a reason was given a bottle of vodka to the deceased in another world. But still, legend, there is a legend!

Locals say that back in the 50s and 70s of the last century, the descendants of those same nobles lived there. They grew gladioli, and a woman drove a car. But then the traces of the Tolkachevs are lost.
