Biography
Lev Vasilyevich was born around 1746 in the family of the famous Russian scientist and poet Vasily Kirillovich Tredyakovsky .
He began to serve at the age of 12 as a cadet, and then as a secretary of the manufactory office. From 1770 to 1776 - Secretary of the heraldry office.
In 1779 he received the rank of court adviser , in 1781 - collegiate , and in 1790 - state councilor .
The recognition of Tredyakovsky’s merits in society was his acceptance in 1771 as a member of the aristocratic English Club, whose foreman he will be elected in 1788 .
Ryazan governorship (1793–1797)
In 1793, Tredyakovsky went to serve in the Ryazan governorship , where he was a lieutenant of Governor Kologrivov . In connection with the deterioration of health and the administration of the latter’s resignation, on October 4, 1793, he became acting governor of Ryazan [2] .
On January 1, 1795, Lieutenant-General Ivan Osipovich Selifontov was sent to the post of Ryazan governor from Tobolsk, and Lev Vasilievich returned to the post of lieutenant. On March 13, 1796, a new governor, Mikhail Ivanovich Kovalensky, was appointed instead of Selifontov.
Lev Vasilyevich resigned his powers on August 29, 1797 in connection with the appointment to the post of Yaroslavl Governor . However, even after leaving the position, Tredyakovsky continued to enjoy considerable respect among the Ryazan nobles and officials. For example, on November 27, 1804, he was invited to the opening of the Ryazan gymnasium .
The establishment of the Atlas of the Ryazan Governance, under the leadership of the provincial surveyor M. Tulayev, is connected with his stay in this position.
Smolensk Governorship (1797–1800)
On September 10, 1797, Lev Vasilyevich was appointed Yaroslavl Governor [3] , but already on December 11 he was transferred to the post of Smolensk Governor [4]
Having entered into the management of the Smolensk province , Lev Vasilyevich immediately came up with the initiative to create in Smolensk a special institution for the maintenance and upbringing of "noble generation orphans", that is, noble children. As the resolution stated on a memorandum on the establishment in Smolensk of a “charity house for the neighbor”, Paul I commanded the matter “to give the nobility its own will without any warning from the government”.
During the governorship at Tredyakovsky, the “general” postal and hydraulic maps of the Smolensk province and the desktop register of all the affairs of the provincial government were compiled, and over the last year recruitment and income debts were collected, the working house and the infirmary for criminals began to settle.
In 1798, Lev Vasilyevich was awarded the Order of St. Anne, I degree.
In August 1798, Tredkovsky proposed in each of the abolished district centers of the province ( Dukhovshchina , Krasny and Yelne ) to establish the post of officer who would keep order, since these cities were ruled who carried out poor governance, which often led to various kinds of unrest (fights, harassment of coming and passing through the city).
Whether these Tredyakovsky initiatives have been implemented or not is not precisely known. In early 1799, he had already asked the prosecutor general to petition before the emperor for his transfer back to Ryazan . The petition was not granted.
In July 1800 he received the rank of secret adviser .
Resignation and death (1800–1812)
In October 1800, while in office as the Smolensk governor, he asked for the “favor” and “beneficence” of another prosecutor general, Peter Khrisanovich Obolyaninov , for his resignation due to eye disease. Tredyakovsky's request for resignation was granted by the emperor on October 24, 1800 . Lev Vasilievich received a life pension in the amount of the governor’s salary.
The last years of his life he spent in Moscow , where he died on April 24, 1812 . He was buried at the Vagankovskoye cemetery . The epitaph on his grave reads: “A precious monument for those who knew him — he knew good advice, grateful feelings and a tender heart filled with love for one's neighbor.”
