Two Fates: The Story of Two Noble Clans. Streshnev Boyarin Streshnev

Herbs in the garden

Yusupov
or the Yusupovo-Knyazhevs - a suppressed Russian princely family. From the military leader, who was in the service of Tamerlane, and the sovereign Nogai prince (died at the beginning of the 15th century) Edigei Mangit, Musa-Murza was born in the third tribe, whose son Yusuf-Murza (died in 1556) was the ancestor of the Yusupov family. He had two sons, Il-Murza and Ibrahim (Abrey), who were sent to Moscow in 1565 by their father's killer, Uncle Ishmael. Their descendants in last years the reign of Alexei Mikhailovich was accepted by St. baptism and were written by the princes Yusupov or Yusupovo-Knyazhevo until the end of the 18th century, and after that they began to be written simply by the princes Yusupov. Two branches of the princes of Yu originated from Il-Murza: the older one, which died out in the 18th century. with the death of his descendant in the fifth tribe of Prince Semyon Ivanovich, and the second, later senior branch; from Ibrahim - one junior branch of the princes Yu. Grigory Dmitrievich (1676-1730) began to serve as a steward under Peter the Great; participated with him in the Azov campaigns; fought with the Swedes at Narva, Poltava and Vyborg; under Catherine I was a senator, under Peter II - the first member of the state military collegium. His son Boris Grigorievich (1696-1759) during the reign of Anna Ioannovna and under Ioann Antonovich was the Moscow governor, under Elizaveta Petrovna - senator, president of the commercial college and chief director of the cadet corps. His son Nikolai Borisovich (1750-1831) from 1783 to 1789 was an envoy to Turin, then a senator; Emperor Paul I made him minister of destinies, and Alexander I - a member state council... After the death of his grandson, Prince Nikolai Borisovich Y. (1827-1890), the Highest was allowed to be called Prince Yusupov, Count Sumarokov-Elston, his son-in-law, guards lieutenant Count Felix Feliksovich Sumarokov-Elston, so that the princely title and the surname of Y. were transferred only to eldest in the family of his descendants. The clan of princes Yu was recorded in the V part of the genealogy book of the provinces of Oryol, Kursk and St. Petersburg. The coat of arms is included in the III part of the General Armorial.

Ancestral curse of the Yusupov princes

Well forgotten

On the eve of the twentieth century, Princess Zinaida Nikolaevna Yusupova ordered portraits of all family members from the fashionable artist Serov. Usually Valentin Aleksandrovich didn’t write “swaggering and rich”, but he didn’t refuse Yusupova: “If all rich people, princess, were like you, then there would be no place for injustice”.

The artist's answer surprised me: "Injustice cannot be eradicated, and even more so with money, Valentin Alexandrovich."
It is unlikely that Zinaida Nikolaevna had social justice in mind. For her, brought up in luxury, any lack of money was the result of thoughtlessness and idleness, and therefore quite fair. Yusupova spoke about the highest justice, which, in her opinion, her family was deprived of.

Curse.

The legend about the ancestral curse of the Yusupovs exists in several versions. Even the family retells it in different ways. Zinaida Nikolaevna herself adhered to the version of the grandmother - Zinaida Ivanovna Naryshkina-Yusupova-de Chavo-de Serre.

The founder of the clan is considered to be the Khan of the Nogai Horde, Yusuf-Murza. Wishing, against the will of the majority of his fellow tribesmen, to make peace with Moscow and fearing for the lives of his sons, he sent them to the court of Ivan the Terrible. The Russian chronicle says: “The sons of Yusuf, arriving in Moscow, were granted by many villages and hamlets in the Romanov district, and the service Tatars and Cossacks settled there were subordinate to them. Since that time, Russia has become a fatherland for the descendants of Yusuf. "

The old khan was not mistaken: his sons had not yet had time to reach Moscow, when his brother treacherously stabbed him. When the news reached the Horde that the sons of Murza had abandoned Mohammedanism and converted to Orthodoxy, one of the sorcerers put a curse on them. According to which, of all the Yusupovs born in one generation, only one will survive until the age of twenty-six, and this will continue until the complete destruction of the clan.

Why the curse sounded so ornate is hard to say, but it came true unswervingly. No matter how many children the Yusupovs were born, only one lived to twenty-six.

At the same time, such a fragility of the clan did not affect the well-being of the family. By 1917, the Yusupovs were the second richest after the Romanovs. They owned 250 thousand acres of land, they were the owners of sugar, brick, sawmills, factories and mines, the annual income from which amounted to more than 15 million gold rubles. And the grand dukes could have envied the luxuries of the Yusupov palaces. For example, Zinaida Nikolaevna's rooms in Arkhangelskoye and in the palace in St. Petersburg were furnished with the furniture of the executed French queen Marie Antoinette. The art gallery rivaled the Hermitage in its selection. And Zinaida Nikolaevna's jewelry included treasures that previously belonged to almost all the royal courts of Europe. So, the magnificent pearl "Pelegrina", with which the princess never parted and is depicted in all portraits, once belonged to Philip II and was considered the main decoration of the Spanish Crown.

However, Zinaida Nikolaevna did not consider wealth to be happiness, and the curse of the Tatar sorceress made the Yusupovs unhappy.

Grandmother de Chaveau.

Of all the Yusupovs, perhaps only Zinaida Nikolaevna's grandmother, Countess de Chaveau, managed to avoid great suffering due to the untimely death of her children.

Born Naryshkina, Zinaida Ivanovna married Boris Nikolayevich Yusupov as a very young girl, bore him a son, then a daughter who died during childbirth, and only after that she learned about the family curse.

Being a reasonable woman, she told her husband that she was not going to “give birth to the dead” in the future, but if he didn’t walk up, “let the courtyard girls grow belly,” and she would not object. This continued until 1849, when the old prince died.

Zinaida Ivanovna was not forty, and, as they would say now, she was in all seriousness. Legends circulated about her dizzying novels, but the greatest noise was caused by her passion for the young People's Will. When he was imprisoned in the Shlisselburg fortress, the princess refused secular amusements, followed him and with bribes and promises achieved that he was released to her at night.

This story was well known, they talked about it, but oddly enough Zinaida Ivanovna was not condemned, recognizing the right of the stately princess to extravagance a la de Balzak.

Then suddenly it all ended, for some time she lived as a recluse on Liteiny, but then, having married a ruined but well-born Frenchman, she left Russia, renounced the title of Princess Yusupova and began to be called Countess de Chaveau, Marquise de Serre.

The story with the young People's Will Yusupov was recalled after the revolution. One of the émigré newspapers published a message that, trying to find the Yusupov treasures, the Bolsheviks knocked on all the walls of the palace on Liteiny Prospekt. No jewelry was found, but a secret room adjoining the bedroom was found, in which there was a coffin with an embalmed man. Most likely, this was the one, sentenced to death, Narodnoye, whose body grandmother bought and transported to St. Petersburg.

Miracles of the Holy Elder.

However, for all the drama of the life of Zinaida Naryshkina-Yusupova-de Chaveau-de Serre, the family considered her happy. All husbands died of old age, her daughter lost during childbirth, when she had not yet had time to get used to her, she loved a lot, did not deny herself anything, and she died surrounded by her relatives. For the rest, despite their untold wealth, life was much more dramatic.

The son of Zinaida Ivanovna, Nikolai Borisovich Yusupov, had three children - a son Boris and daughters Zinaida and Tatiana. Boris died in infancy from scarlet fever, but his daughters grew up not only very beautiful, but most importantly, healthy girls. Parents were happy, until in 1878 misfortune happened to Zinaida.

The family spent the autumn of that year in Arkhangelsk. Prince Nikolai Borisovich, the honorary guardian, the court master of the court, being employed in the service, came rarely and shortly. The princess, on the other hand, introduced her daughters to their Moscow relatives and arranged musical evenings. In her free time, Tatyana read, and the eldest Zinaida made horseback riding. During one of them, the girl injured her leg. At first, the wound seemed insignificant, but soon the temperature rose, and Dr. Botkin, called to the estate, made a hopeless diagnosis - blood poisoning. Soon the girl fell into unconsciousness, and the family prepared for the worst.

Then Zinaida Nikolaevna told that in unconsciousness, Father John of Kronstadsky, who was familiar with their family, dreamed of her. Recovering, she asked to call him, and after the elder who had arrived prayed for her, she began to recover. At the same time, the princess always added that she had not heard of the family tradition at that time and did not know that with her recovery she was dooming her younger sister to death.

Tanya died of typhus at the age of twenty-two.

Lightning strike.

Little remains of the once rich Yusupov archives in Russia. "The drunken sailor" - as Felix Yusupov described her in his memoirs - was looking, first of all, for jewelry, and she burned the incomprehensible papers that she came across. This is how the priceless library and archive of Alexander Blok perished, the archives of almost all noble families of Russia burned down in fires. Now the family chronicles have to be restored according to the acts preserved in the state archives.

The Yusupovs are no exception. Felix Yusupov's memoirs published abroad cannot be completely trusted - he embellishes his role in the murder of Rasputin, and presents revolutionary events rather subjectively. But due to the proximity to the imperial family, the Yusupov family chronicle is not difficult to restore.

After the illness of the eldest daughter, Nikolai Borisovich Yusupov became especially insistent on the issue of her marriage. As Zinaida Nikolaevna later recalled, the prince, who was ill a lot, was afraid that he would not see his grandchildren.

And soon the princess, who did not want to upset her father, agreed to meet another contender for her hand - a relative of the emperor, the Bulgarian prince Battenberg. The pretender to the Bulgarian throne was accompanied by a modest officer Felix Elston, whose duties were to introduce the prince to the future bride and take his leave. Zinaida Nikolaevna refused the future monarch and accepted Felix's offer, which he made to her the day after they met. It was love at first sight, but for Zinaida Nikolaevna, as everyone noted, the first and only one.

Nikolai Borisovich, no matter how embarrassed his daughter's decision, did not contradict her, and in the spring of 1882 Felix Elston and Zinaida Yusupova got married. A year later, the firstborn was born to the young - Nikolai, named so in honor of his grandfather.

Yusupovs in a straight line.

The boy grew up silent and withdrawn, and no matter how hard Zinaida Nikolaevna tried to bring him closer, she did not succeed. All her life she remembered the horror that gripped her when, on Christmas 1887, when asked what gift he would like to her son, she received a childish and icy answer: “I don’t want you to have other children.”

Then Zinaida Nikolaevna was confused, but it soon became clear that one of the mothers assigned to the young prince told the boy about the Nagai curse. She was fired, but the princess began to wait for the expected child with a feeling of persecuted and acute fear.

And at first the fears were not in vain. Nikolai did not hide his dislike for Felix, and only when he was ten years old did a feeling appear between them that sounded more like friendship than love of two relatives.

Nikolai Borisovich Yusupov died in 1891. Shortly before his death, he asked for the highest mercy to preserve the glorified surname, and after the mourning had passed, Zinaida Nikolaevna's husband, Count Sumarokov-Elston, was given permission to be called Prince Yusupov.
Family rock reminded of itself in 1908.

Fatal duel.

In the memoirs of Felix Yusupov, it is easy to see that all his life he was jealous of his mother for his older brother. He, although he was outwardly more like his father than Zinaida Nikolaevna, his inner world was unusually similar to her. He was fond of theater, played music, painted pictures. His stories were published under the pseudonym Fates, and even Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy, who was sparing of praise, once noted the author's undoubted talent.

After graduating from St. Petersburg University, he received a law degree. The family started talking about the upcoming marriage, but Nikolai unexpectedly fell in love with Maria Heiden, who was already engaged to Count Arvid Manteuffel, and soon this wedding took place.

The young people went on a trip to Europe, Nikolai Yusupov followed them, the duel could not be avoided. And it took place

On June 22, 1908, in the estate of Prince Beloselsky on Krestovsky Island in St. Petersburg, Count Manteuffel did not miss. Nikolai Yusupov was supposed to be twenty-six years old in six months.

“Rending screams came from my father’s room,” Felix Yusupov recalled years later. - I entered and saw him, very pale, in front of the stretcher, where the body of Nikolai was stretched out. His mother, kneeling in front of him, seemed to have lost her mind. With great difficulty we tore her away from my son's body and put her to bed. Having calmed down a little, she called me, but when she saw, she mistook me for her brother. It was an unbearable scene. Then my mother fell into prostration, and when she regained consciousness, she did not let me go for a second. "

A vicious cherub.

When Nikolai died in a duel, Zinaida Nikolaevna was about fifty. Now all her hopes were connected with her youngest son.

Outwardly, Felix resembled his mother unusually - regular features, large eyes, thin nose, swollen lips, graceful figure. But, if the features of Zinaida Nikolaevna were called angelic by contemporaries, then no one compared her youngest son except with a fallen angel. In all his appearance as a cherub, there was a certain depravity.

He was not inclined, like his older brother or mother, to the arts. He had no interest in military and civil service, like his father or maternal relatives. A burner of life, a golden boy, an enviable groom. But even with marriage, everything was not so simple.

Zinaida Nikolaevna tried to influence her son, wrote to him: "Do not play cards, limit your fun pastime, work with your brains!" But Felix Yusupov, although he adored his mother, was unable to overcome himself. Only Zinaida Nikolaevna's crafty statement that she was sick, but did not want to die until she saw her grandchildren, prompted him to agree to marry and promise to settle down. Okaziya introduced herself pretty soon.

In 1913, for December evenings in Arkhangelskoye, he came Grand Duke Alexander Mikhailovich. He himself started a conversation about the marriage of his daughter Irina and Felix, and the Yusupovs gladly responded. Irina Alexandrovna was not only one of the most enviable brides in the country, but also stunningly beautiful. By the way, at the beginning of the twentieth century in Russia there were three recognized beauties: Empress Maria Feodorovna, Zinaida Nikolaevna Yusupova and Irina Alexandrovna Romanova.

The wedding took place in February 1914 in the church of the Anichkov Palace. Since the Yusupovs were now related to the reigning dynasty, the entire imperial family arrived to congratulate the young. A year later, their daughter Irina was born.

The killer's mother.

Almost everything is known about the role of Felix Yusupov in the murder of Rasputin. They lured the voluptuous old man under the pretext of meeting with Irina Alexandrovna to the palace on the Moika. First they hounded, then they shot and, in the end, they drowned Rasputin in the river.

In his memoirs, Yusupov assures that in this way he tried to free Russia from "the dark force leading her to the abyss." Several times he refers to the mother, who quarreled because of her dislike for Rasputin with the empress. But is it worthy to lure a victim under the pretext of intimacy with his own wife? And Grigory Rasputin would hardly have believed such behavior of the noble prince.

Even then, in Yusupov's explanations, contemporaries suspected some cunning and assumed that Rasputin agreed to come to extinguish the quarrel between the spouses caused by Felix's homosexual inclinations.
The empress insisted that the conspirators be shot, but since among them was the Grand Duke Dmitry Romanov, the punishment was limited to exile. Felix was exiled to the Rakitnoye estate in Kursk.

Having learned about the events in St. Petersburg, Zinaida Nikolaevna, who was in the Crimea, paid a visit to the Dowager Empress.

“We have always understood each other,” Maria Fedorovna said slowly, drawing out her words a little. “But I'm afraid our prayers were answered too late. The Lord punished my son long ago by having his head taken away. Get your family together. If we have time, we don't have much. "

Cursed wealth.

At the beginning of the war, almost all of the country's wealthy families transferred their foreign savings to Russia. The Yusupovs were no exception. This was caused not only and not so much by patriotism as by the desire to preserve property - no one doubted the victory of Russia.

When the revolution broke out, Felix tried to save the family jewels by transporting them to Moscow. But they could not be taken from there, and the jewelry was accidentally found eight years later.

When on April 13, 1919, the Yusupovs sailed from the Crimea on the battleship "Marlboro", in Russia they remained: 4 palaces and 6 tenement houses in St. Petersburg, a palace and 8 tenement houses in Moscow, 30 estates and estates throughout the country, the Rakityan sugar factory, Milyatinsky meat factory, Dolzhansky anthracite mines, several brick factories and much more.

But even in emigration, the Yusupovs were not among the poor. Although we have already mentioned that foreign savings were transferred to Russia with the beginning of the war, real estate remained abroad, and the princess's most valuable jewels were constantly taken with them and taken to emigration.

After Felix bought passports and visas for several diamonds, the Yusupovs settled in Paris. They bought a house in the Bois de Boulogne, where they lived for many years.

The old prince died in 1928, Zinaida Nikolaevna in 1939.

They buried her in the Sainte-Genevieve-des-Bois cemetery near Paris.

Felix Yusupov did not give up his idle life, and, in the end, all the property exported and available abroad was wasted. He himself, his wife and daughter Irina were buried in his mother's grave. There was no money for one more place in the cemetery.

Streshnev, Tikhon Nikitich

One of the representatives of the Russian state people of the "transitional period" from the Moscow orders of the 17th century. to the "innovations" initiated by Peter the Great - was born in 1649. A distant relative of the tsar and "his own man" in the royal court routine, S. was brought up in the old way of life in Moscow, but due to his closeness to Peter, who from childhood was accustomed to seeing him around him and loved him very much, he considered it his moral and official duty to fulfill all orders tsar, whatever they may be - and in this respect S. was reconciled with all the "overseas" innovations of Peter, although many of them could not sympathize in the depths of his soul.

In 1666 S. was a solicitor, and in 1668 he was promoted to steward. According to Pogodin's research, he was in the rank of a Duma nobleman, was assigned along with his grandchild uncle, the boyar Rod. Matv. Streshnev, an uncle to Tsarevich Peter Alekseevich, shortly after his birth. At the wedding of John and Peter Alekseevich to the kingdom in 1682, Mr .. S. led Tsarevich Peter under the arms, and the next day he was granted to the entourage. As Peter's uncle, he was in charge of the purchase and repair of toys, ordered clothes and ordered what days and what clothes to serve in the royal mansions. Taking an active part in the home life of the young tsar, in his studies and amusements, S. kept aloof from political activity. He was a distant relative of Peter on the part of his father (he was, as it was called in the old days, the great-great-grandbrother of Tsar Alexy Mikhailovich) and, fearing to be pushed out of the royal family circle after Peter's marriage, he naturally wished that the choice of the royal bride would take place under his influence. Educator Peter, Prince. V.A. Golitsyn, outlined his relative, Princess Trubetskoy, to be married to him, and if this marriage took place, the Golitsyn and Trubetskoy would have become stronger. According to the testimony of the book. Bor. Yves. Kurakin, the choice of Evdokia Fyodorovna Lopukhina to wife Peter was made on the advice of S., and the tsar allegedly could not forgive him for this later and even disliked him. Book. Kurakin speaks of S. as a crafty person, with an evil disposition, a much average mind and a palace intrigue "and considers him the" first villain "of the Lopukhins after Peter's marriage to Evdokia Fedorovna. that Prince Kurakin had personal scores with S. on the basis of related misunderstandings. The secretary of the German embassy Korb, who was in Moscow in 1698-99, speaks of S. in a completely different way: it is great that often at public feasts, during solemn cups of health, under the name of Streshnev they mean all loyal to the tsar: the name of Tikhon Nikitich commemorates the memory of the most loyal ministers. "

Accustomed from childhood to look at S. as one of the people closest to him, Peter treated him, as can be seen from their extensive correspondence, respectfully humorously calling him "Min Her Heilige Vader", or "Holy Father", believed in his devotion and willingness to tirelessly serve him and his fatherland and very often entrusted him, along with important matters, even very small, everyday ones. How much the tsar respected S. is evident, by the way, from the fact that he allowed him to wear a beard; besides him, only one boyar did not undergo barber shaving - book. Micah. Alegukov. Cherkassky, due to his advanced years.

In 1688, Mr .. S. was granted a boyar. In 1689 he carried out a search in the case of Prince. You. You. Golitsyn, and in his presence were read on the palace porch of the "guilt" of Prince. Golitsyn, with a huge crowd of people. In 1690, Peter entrusted S. with the management of the Discharge Order, which obeyed nine regional categories. This position put S. at the head of the entire then military administration in the Moscow state. In 1694, Mr .. S. participated in the "amusing" Kozhukhov campaign, being the captain of the stewards. In actual battles, he, apparently, never was, but this did not prevent him from delving into military regulations and sensibly judging the suitability of one or another case. An illustrative example of this is the following circumstance: in 1695, at the beginning of the Azov campaigns, the military council decided that Gordon's division, assigned to the vanguard, would gather in Voronezh, descend to Cherkassk along the Don, unite there with the Cossacks and head for Azov, to keep no reinforcements from reaching him. In anticipation of the closure of the rivers, the tsar went to Pereyaslavl-Zalessky to select weapons for the infantry artillery, and Gordon presented S., as the head of the Discharge, that it was closer and more convenient for his detachment to go by dry route than by water. S. completely shared his opinion, and the tsar, upon his return from Pereyaslavl, approved this plan. At the end of July 1695 S. received a notification from the tsar about the victories over the Tatars and poured out his joy on this occasion in a letter showing his well-readness in the then church books. To cite this letter in its entirety, since almost all of S.'s other letters to Peter are distinguished by their businesslike character and constitute only accurate and detailed answers to his orders. "My lord and my merciful king! In the good advice of my heart, I was pleased with my sorrow (death of mother S.) with the joy of signing on June 29 the universal joy of tribute, even informing my slave about all prosperity and all-victorious success of my all-merciful sovereign and king: for the slave is always glad to hear the joy of his lord, as I hear now through the all-merciful writing of my sovereign and the light, broadcasting great joy to his servant, a hedgehog victory and victory over busurmans and the perception of quivers. sovereign, let him preserve and observe, like the apple of his eye, and give help and strength to defeat enemies, destroy the walls, which for this and awakened your heart, so it is possible, postponing all sorrow, in all joy, our joy, like a winner, to joyfully greet. Such world joys and victories are zealous desires, your servant Tishka Streshnev beats with his forehead. "

In 1690, especially during Peter's trips to Voronezh, for the "ship business", S. had to quickly and accurately fulfill the various orders of the tsar. So, going to Voronezh this year, Peter ordered S. to send people to the Don and Kalancha (Azov) to brew beer, but they were late, and the tsar was upset by such lack of performance. "And when we learned about their sack," wrote S. to the Tsar, "and that hour they sent them on purpose, ordered them to ask them and tell them the death penalty for the sack, and they will continue to hesitate all the time." Procurement of beer in those Cossack villages where Peter intended to be, apparently worried S. a lot, and in the summer of the same 1696 he asked Peter in writing where to make the procurement, for which he received an order from him from the Principium galley ". Soon after arriving in Voronezh, in the same year, Peter wrote to S. regarding the sending of ash logs to the oars and thus finished the letter: "For this we wish your shrine every good. And we, by the order of God, to our great-grandfather Adam in the sweat of our brows eat your bread. " S. replied to this: "Your grace writes that you are, according to the commandment of God to our great-grandfather Adam, in the sweat of your brow you eat your bread: we know that Nicola is celebrated, but you always have hard work, and that is not for yourself, but for all Orthodox Christians. " The tsar immediately informed S. about all of his "victories" and received congratulations from him. Here is how S. ends one of his congratulatory letters: “And the Preobrazhenskov prince (ie, Prince Yu. F. Romodanovsky) had us yesterday, and there was cannon firing and a small rifle was enough, as well as drinking and eating it. .. so that others slept there. "

During his trip in 1697 to the Western European states in the retinue of the great embassy, ​​the tsar entrusted the rule of the Moscow state to Prince Yu. F. Romodanovsky, nicknamed "prince-Caesar", and S., and appointed L.K. Naryshkin, Prince B. A. Golitsyn and Prince. P.I.Prozorovsky. During his trip abroad, Peter continued to carry on a lively correspondence with S., who, when Peter was in Amsterdam, asked him to send at least one mill master to build mills on the Yauza and Voronezh. From London, the tsar wrote in 1698 to L.K. Naryshkin and S., as well as the confessor of his wife, Tsarina Evdokia Fyodorovna, to persuade her to voluntarily tonsure. All the arguments came to nothing; the confessor, in the words of S., as a "low-spoken" person, did not dare to speak persistently; as a result, S. advised Peter "to update him (ie, the confessor) with a letter, then he will become more diligent in that matter." Soon Evdokia Feodorovna was, as you know, tonsured at the Suzdal Pokrovsky Monastery under the name of Elena; but she retained good feelings for S. and hoped for his intercession before Peter, as can be seen from the later letter of the involuntary nun, who wrote in 1703 to S.: “Tikhon Nikitich, hello for many years! mercy: how long can I live in such a way that I, Tsar, I neither hear, I see, nor my son. Already my misfortune is five years old, and from him, Tsar, there is no mercy. Perhaps, Tikhon Nikitich, beat me with my brow so that I , Sovereign, to hear health. Perhaps ask about my relatives so that I can see them. Show me your poor mercy, beat him with your forehead, the Emperor, so that I may live; and I hope in your mercy, do it mercifully. to repay you: so God will pay you for your mercy; and in May, oprishen your mercy, there is no one to push. Perhaps, intercede with mercy! "

During the streltsy uprising of 1698, the streltsy were going to beat the prince. Romodanovsky and S. for sending them to the services and thus torturing them. For the search over the archers, the tsar ordered the establishment of 14 dungeons and appointed S. as the chairman of one of them. We do not know what S.'s attitude to the archers was, but the Strelets' wives, escorting them from the monastery prisons to Preobrazhenskoye, loudly said: "Not only archers disappear, Tsarevna Tatiana Mikhailovna complained to the Tsarevich about the boyar Streshnev that he starved them to death: “If it hadn’t been for the monasteries fed us, we would have died long ago.” And the Tsarevich told her: “Give me a time, I'll clean them up. "

In 1698, when S. was in charge of the order of the Big Palace, a book was made to the volosts and villages that are led in this Palace. Wanting to arrange a fleet, Peter, as you know, attracted all eminent and wealthy people to shipbuilding and divided them into "kumpanstva". At the expense of S., a 26-gun ship named "Three glasses" was built by Danish craftsmen. In the fall of 1699, Mr .. S. had to take care of sending 500 or 600 soldiers to Voronezh to guard the ships under construction there, and in the spring of 1700 he was among the tsar's retinue, who went there to attend the descent of the ships.

From the very beginning of the war between Tsar Peter and Charles XII, S., who was at the head of the Discharge Order, had even more worries and troubles. In 1701, after the Narva defeat, the tsar sent S., with the rank of "judge of military affairs to Novgorod, for military administration and fortification of Pskov and Novgorod in case of an enemy invasion. S. stayed in Novgorod until the end of June 1702 and, after road to Moscow, already in Klin, received a letter from the tsar about the procurement in Novgorod a large number supply for Sheremetev for the autumn and winter hikes. Arriving in Moscow, S. learned that after his departure the deaths of horses began in Novgorod, Pskov and Klin, and this made it very difficult to carry out the assignment entrusted to him. In September 1702, the tsar ordered S. to prepare for the spring of 1703 4 thousand, and in extreme cases 3 thousand dragoons and one thousand soldiers to replenish the regiments. A month and a half later, he wrote to S.: "Don't be so flat out", and demanded not one thousand, but 4-5 thousand soldiers, adding: "the more, the better!" During 1703-1707. The tsar repeatedly wrote to S. from different cities about sending soldiers, dragoons, primary people, workers, weapons, money and horses, and sometimes demanded a considerable number of "trains, quadruples and pairs" and ordered that "the charioteers, although not smartly, however if everything would be clean and instrumental, and so that the old dress would not be mixed up. " Regarding the impossibility of waging a war with an insufficient number of troops, Peter wrote to S.: "It is not good to scratch your head when your teeth are broken out of the comb." In the summer of 1705, Peter feared an attack by the Swedes on the Novgorod region, and therefore ordered S. to send the captured Swedish initial people around the cities to strong places, and to reforge the privates and send them to work. S. was supposed to appoint a voivode and send a soldier with him to Novgorod: "For God, this campaign will soon and well manage that with God's help the enemy did not laugh at us, and as many people as possible were found and went "- wrote Tsar S. Golovin: "I grieve about the Saldatsky harvest; at the review there were not without many thousand people, but 400 people were chosen. They bring a lot, but people are bad ... I don't know what to do. "Sometimes it seemed to Peter that S. was not sending the soldiers out soon enough, and he wrote to Count Golovkin and Golovin so that they would hurry him, or he wrote to him himself. : “It is amazing that your new regiments of dragoon syuds have not only arrived yet, but there is not a rumor about their march. Correct these things as soon as possible, for it is very necessary. " I correct it with zeal, as soon as I can, and in addition to the letters I do what is necessary, and I know that dragoon regiments are needed for the current war. " still to move on the road, as a change took place, and instead of Smolensk he had to go to Kiev, where the tsar himself went.S. could not, due to ill health, return from Kiev with Peter and later wrote to him from the road, from Nizhyn, regarding who lived in Kiev, Ryazan Metropolitan Stefan Yavorsky.As you know, after the death of Patriarch Adrian in October 1700, Stefan Yavorsky was appointed locum tenens of the patriarchal throne, but, burdened by his uncertain position in Moscow, I went to Kiev with the tsar and hoped to stay there forever. While in Kiev in 1706, Peter demanded, however, his return to Moscow, despite Stephen's pleas for permission to live in Kiev. After the departure of the tsar, S. repeatedly visited Stefan Yavorsky and persuaded him not to oppose the tsar's orders. "And so he bowed down - wrote S. to the tsar - went from Kiev; only I had it, and did not tell nikamu, and in the monastery where he lived, they did not know. he said to him: yours was a lot of sacrifice, but the sovereign's permission: you were ordered to go, and you caused the patamah, and the sovereign's anger and you are not, and the sovereign's mercy towards you is still not a dummy. from your mercy to give hope in Moscow. " Upon returning to Moscow, S. received an order from Peter to immediately make inquiries in the Moscow orders, what amount will remain for 1707, for the payment of salaries to the troops and for covering all other expenses. Due to the increase in the army, more provisions were required to Petersburg and Azov, and therefore S. had to take care of the winter dispatch of provisions to Petersburg and procurement for Azov within two years, in excess of the usual annual supply, 150,000 quarters of rye, having previously built for winter warehouses a city on the Aydar River or elsewhere.

During 1703-1707. Simultaneously with the reinforced replenishment of the army, collecting money and preparing provisions, the tsar instructed S. to send doctors from Moscow to the Baltic region, then send gardeners and strawberry roots from Izmailovo to Azov, or to Petersburg flowers, and mainly kalufer, mint and other fragrant herbs. In 1707, Peter ordered S. to send a statement regarding the issuance of food to the Swedish prisoners of war and soldiers, and henceforth to stop giving it to them, because nothing is given to the Russian prisoners in Stockholm. In August of the same year, S. received an order to gradually select from the undergrowth "good children to school (mathematical) people up to a hundred, or more".

S. had to rigorously, by order of the tsar, punish either the escaped Submariners (who were with the soldiers' and artillery carts), or the fugitive soldiers. The tsar ordered, having found the handlers, "to beat everyone with a whip and cut their ears, and besides that, the fifth from the lot with them sent to Taganrog, if they will, so as not to scatter to Poland." The soldier, for escaping from the regiments, Peter ordered to subject this kind of punishment: out of three people, by lot, one should be hanged in the regiment from which he fled, and two should be whipped and sent to eternal hard labor. Those soldiers who voluntarily returned from the run, beating them with a whip, should be sent to hard labor in Azov for five years, and then returned to serve in the regiments as before, "so that in the future it would be discouraging for others to run from the regiments." How confident Peter was not only in S.'s diligence, but also in his knowledge of people, can be seen from his next letter, writing on May 6, 1707 from Dubna: "Min Her! Prince Alexander Cherkassky goes to other European states to teach navigation and other that it should be, he asked me, so that in excommunicating him, I would order him his house to one of the old nobles, who are no longer fit for the service, whom he can believe, and so that he should not be sent anywhere from Moscow, and you, at his request, do this ".

In 1708, during the division of the Moscow state into provinces, S. was appointed governor of Moscow, this did not prevent Peter from continuing to give him all sorts of urgent orders, such as, for example, to send to Petersburg a thousand canvas bags of wool, the size of "how a man standing on his knees, he can close in height and width ", 150,000 ordinary bags, 6,000 iron shovels, 2,000 picks and hoes.

In 1711, during the establishment of the Senate, S. was appointed to the number of senators. In 1715, at the amusing wedding of Nikita Moiseevich Zotov, he was dressed as a Catholic archbishop and, together with Saltykov and Baturin, being in the orchestra, played the big horn. In 1718 he took part in the trial of Tsarevich Alexei Petrovich and, among others, signed his death warrant.

S. died on January 15, 1719 in the new Peter's capital - "St. Petersburg"; his burial took place on January 17, and Peter not only attended the funeral service, but also walked in mourning behind the coffin all the way to the Nevsky Monastery.

Biography

1644-1689

Tikhon Streshnev was born in 1644 in the family of boyar Nikita Konstantinovich Streshnev. In 1666, Tikhon Streshnev was granted a solicitor, and in 1668 he was promoted to steward. Soon after the birth of Tsarevich Peter Alekseevich, Streshnev, in the rank of a Duma nobleman, was assigned to him as a "poddyad", that is, the first home educator. He was a distant relative of Peter from his father's side (he was, as it was called in the old days, the great-great-grandbrother of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich). As Peter's uncle, Tikhon Nikitich was in charge of the purchase and repair of toys, ordered clothes and ordered what days and what clothes to serve in the royal mansions. At the wedding of John and Peter Alekseevich to the kingdom in 1682, Streshnev led Tsarevich Peter by the arms, and the next day he was granted to the entourage. Taking an active part in the home life of the young tsar, in his studies and amusements, Tikhon Streshnev tried to stay away from political activity.

In 1688 Streshnev was granted a boyar status. At the same time, Tsarina Natalya Kirillovna decided to marry Peter. His tutor, Prince Boris Alekseevich Golitsyn, nominated his relative, Princess Trubetskoy, to marry him, and if this marriage took place, the Golitsyns and Trubetskoys would have grown stronger. According to Prince Boris Ivanovich Kurakin, the choice of Evdokia Fedorovna Lopukhina to wife Peter was made on the advice of Tikhon Streshnev, who feared to be ousted from the royal family after Peter's marriage, and the tsar allegedly would not have been able to forgive him for this and even disliked him. Prince Kurakin spoke of Streshnev as "A crafty man, an evil disposition, a much average mind and a palace intriguer"... The validity of this review is doubtful and is explained, most likely, by the fact that Prince Kurakin sharply disliked Streshnev and had personal scores with him on the basis of family relations. In addition, Kurakin was irritated by Streshnev's "art" and aroused jealousy of affection for Tikhon Nikitich Peter. The secretary of the Austrian embassy Johann Korb, who was in Moscow in 1698-1699, spoke of Streshnev in a completely different way:

Streshnev serves as a model of inviolable loyalty, and his fame in this respect is so great that often at public feasts, during solemn cups of health, under the name Streshnev they mean all loyal to the tsar: the name of Tikhon Nikitich commemorates the memory of the most loyal ministers.

Peter, accustomed from childhood to look at Tikhon Streshnev as one of the people closest to him, treated him, as can be seen from their extensive correspondence, respectfully humorously calling him "Min Her Heilige Vader", or "Holy Father", believed in his devotion and willingness to tirelessly serve him and the fatherland and very often entrusted him, along with important matters, even very small, everyday ones. Although Streshnev was brought up in the old way of life in Moscow, he considered it his moral and official duty to fulfill all the orders of the tsar, whatever they may be, and in this respect he was reconciled with all the "overseas" innovations of Peter, although he could not sympathize with many of them. deep down. Peter, in turn, respected Tikhon Streshnev so much that he allowed almost the only boyar to wear a beard. Subsequently, when a duty was imposed on wearing a beard, boyar Streshnev used this right "duty-free."

1689-1700

In 1689, Tikhon Nikitich Streshnev carried out a search (investigation) in the case of Prince Vasily Vasilyevich Golitsyn - the actual head of the Russian government during the regency of Princess Sophia. In 1690, Streshnev headed the supreme body of the state's military administration - the Discharge Order. In 1694, Streshnev took part in the "amusing" Kozhukhov campaign, being the captain of the stewards. In actual battles, Streshnev, apparently, never was, but this did not prevent him from delving into military routines.

In 1690, especially during Peter's trips to Voronezh for the "ship business", Streshnev performed various of his assignments. So, for example, he was in charge of the preparation of beer in those Cossack villages where Peter intended to be. Tikhon Nikitich accompanied Peter on his first pilgrimage to the Solovetsky Monastery in 1694.

In 1697, going to travel around Europe in the retinue of the great embassy, ​​Peter I entrusted the administration of the country to F. Yu. Romodanovsky and T. N. Streshnev. Having become one of the first persons in the state, Streshnev announced his decisions in the name of the sovereign, and his power was so great that Vasily Osipovich Klyuchevsky wittily remarked on this matter: "The old legislative formula 'the sovereign indicated and the boyars were sentenced' could now be replaced by another: Tikhon Streshnev or Prince Romodanovsky indicated, and the boyars kept silent."... Even in official documents, Streshnev was often referred to simply "Tikhon Nikitich", since everyone knew who they were talking about. In the absence of the sovereign, foreign ambassadors sent greetings to him, and the secretary of the Austrian embassy I. Korb even called Streshnev the loud title of "His Imperial Majesty the Savior". This title, "assigned" by Korb to TN Streshnev, is the best evidence of his loyalty to the tsar. In reality, such a title did not exist.

Tikhon Streshnev played a role in the fate of Tsarina Evdokia Fedorovna. During his trip abroad, Peter continued to carry on a lively correspondence with Streshnev, in particular, in 1698 the tsar wrote from London to him, L.K. Naryshkin, as well as his wife's confessor, asking them to persuade her to voluntarily tonsure. In his reply, Streshnev wrote that the confessor, as a "laconic" person, did not dare to persistently speak with the tsarina, and advised Peter that if the confessor "Update with a letter, then he will become more diligent in that matter"... Soon Evdokia Feodorovna was tonsured at the Suzdal Pokrovsky Monastery under the name of Elena.

The emblem of the ship "Three glasses"

In the Moscow fire of 1698, Tikhon Streshnev was among those who evacuated the relics from the Kremlin's Assumption Cathedral. He carried the staff of Metropolitan Peter to the Nikitsky monastery. Few of the laity could be honored to touch this great Orthodox shrine, and such a right could not be a consequence of the position or any state merit. It only testified to the confidence of the clergy in Tikhon Nikitich.

During the Shooting Riot of 1698, the Streltsy were going to deal with Prince Romodanovsky and Streshnev because they "send them to the services and thus torture them." After the suppression of the revolt to search for the archers, the tsar ordered the establishment of 14 torture chambers, appointing Tikhon Streshnev as chairman of one of them. In the same year, Tikhon Nikitich Streshnev took over the Order of the Grand Palace, which controlled the palace economy. Under him, a book was made to the volosts and villages subordinate to this Palace.

Wanting to arrange a fleet, Peter attracted all eminent and wealthy people to shipbuilding, dividing them into "kumpanstva". At the expense of Streshnev, Danish craftsmen built a 26-gun ship named "Three Shot Glasses". His motto was "Keep in measure in all matters", and the emblem was three glasses on the table. In the spring of 1700, Streshnev, among the tsar's retinue, was present when the ships were launched.

1700-1708

The seal of T.N. Streshnev (1711)

During the Northern War, TN Streshnev, as the head of the Discharge Order, was in charge of recruiting, provisions for the army, the supply of weapons, money and horses, etc. In 1701, after the Narva defeat, Peter sent him with the title of “judge military affairs "to Novgorod for military control and fortification of Pskov and Novgorod in case of an enemy invasion. Tikhon Nikitich stayed in Novgorod until the end of June 1702. During 1703-1707, simultaneously with the reinforced replenishment of the army, collecting money and preparing food, the tsar entrusted Streshnev with all kinds of urgent orders, for example, he was in charge of sending doctors from Moscow to the Baltic region, from Izmailovo to Azov, gardeners and strawberry roots, and flowers to St. Petersburg, etc. In the summer of 1705, Peter, fearing an attack by the Swedes on the Novgorod region, ordered Streshnev to send captured Swedish officers from Novgorod to other cities, and to reforge the privates and send them to work. He was also instructed to appoint a voivode and send soldiers with him to Novgorod. In 1707, Peter ordered Streshnev to send a statement regarding the issuance of food to Swedish prisoners of war and soldiers and continue to stop issuing food to them, because nothing is given to Russian prisoners in Stockholm. In August of the same year, Streshnev was ordered to choose from undergrowth for winter "Good children to school (math) people up to a hundred, or more"... By the orders of the tsar, Streshnev was supposed to punish the escaped supply carriers (carters of soldiers' and artillery carts) and fugitive soldiers.

1708-1719

St. Petersburg. Alexander Nevsky Lavra. Lazarevskaya tomb. At the beginning of the 18th century, next to the Lazarevskaya Church there was a wooden Annunciation Church, near which the first burials were made. In this part of the Lazarevskoye cemetery, T.N. Streshnev rests

In 1708, during the division of Russia into provinces, Tikhon Nikitich Streshnev was appointed governor of Moscow, but this did not prevent Peter from continuing to give him all sorts of urgent orders.

According to the decree of February 22, 1711, T.N. Streshnev was appointed to the Governing Senate. In 1718, he participated in the trial of Tsarevich Alexei Petrovich and, among others, signed his death warrant.

Tikhon Nikitich Streshnev died on January 15, 1719 in St. Petersburg. His burial took place on January 17 at the Lazarevskoye cemetery of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra. Tsar Peter not only attended the funeral service, but also went in mourning behind the coffin to the cemetery. Streshnev's grave was lost in the 18th century.

Family

Tikhon Nikitich Streshnev was married twice. In 1670 he married Ekaterina Bogdanovna Begicheva (d. 1698). Two children were born in the marriage: son Ivan (died 1717) and daughter Elena (died 1706). In 1699, Tikhon Nikitich married the widow of Prince Prokhor Grigorievich Dolgorukov, Anna Yurievna (died 1718), the daughter of boyar Yuri Nikitich Baryatinsky.

Estate

Apparently, Tikhon Nikitich Streshnev was the first owner of the allotment, on which the village of Kozmodemyanskoye (now the village of Nizhnee Golitsyno, Rtishchevsky district) was later located. Since his children died, this allotment was inherited by Tikhon Nikitich's granddaughter Sophia (Ekaterina) Ivanovna (1701-1739), and from her, as a dowry, the allotment passed to her husband Boris Vasilyevich Golitsyn (1705-1768).
