Village Names
The first mention of the name of the modern village of Popovka in documents that are known today refers to 1913 [3] . The village is referred to as Big Popovka, however, according to the stories of fellow villagers it is known that the village was originally called Yaңa avyl (“New Village”).
In the beginning of the 1920s, the neighboring village of Mutk Bashy was attached to the village of Bolshaya Popovka [4] . The name Mәtkә bashy outside the territory of the village of the same name has been preserved to this day, but now as the name of a part of the village. Where did the name Popovka come from and, besides, Big? In 1913, in the Zainsk volost, in addition to the village of Big Popovka , there were also Malaya Popovka and Podgornaya Popovka (settlement Podgorny ). Moreover, on the maps of the Menzelinsky district of the Ufa province in 1875 and 1912 Popov-Polyana is indicated. In a relatively small area, such frequent use of the same word in the names of settlements (in this case, Popovka), or derived from its root, can be explained by historical, economic, national, geographical or other reference to this word, which has a certain meaning. for residents of the area. There are at least two versions. The first of these is that long since these places were called Popovka because of the fact that 30 acres of land in this neighborhood belonged to an Orthodox priest. According to the second version, this territory belonged to a timber merchant named Popov, who, having lost a significant amount of money in cards, was unable to pay off the debt, as a result of which the land was sold to the residents of Srednyaya Bagryazh . Big Popovka was called, most likely, because by that time, from the already existing settlements called Popovka, this village was the most numerous in terms of the number of courtyards and population. In 1933, the village was renamed again. It was connected with the event of the autumn of 1932, when a resident of Bolshaya Popovka, Arina Glukhova, a tea merchant, came to the house of the chairman of Minazetdinov Gilyazit. Having entered the house, she saw on the forefinger a seal of the village of Big Popovka and, taking advantage of the fact that the owner was asleep, stole it. The print is lost. In order not to use the old stamp for personal gain, they made changes in the making of a new one: now they have engraved “Popovka” instead of “ Big Popovka ”. This is the name of the village that has survived to the present day. Considering the letter from the front dated 01/01/1945 by A. F. Kondrabaeva, who wrote his letter to the village of Bolshaya Popovka to his mother Kondrabaeva (Vasilyeva) Marina Vasilyevna (1873-10.04.1951), it should be noted that along with the name Popovka, the name Big Popovka still existed among the people at least until the mid-1940s.
On the territory of Yana Avyl people moved from such villages as Upper Bagryazh , Sarsaz-Bagryazh , Ashyt , Pustashit ( Bista bashy ), Kadyrovo , Akhmetyevo and Penyachi , but most of all from the village of Srednyaya Bagryazh .
The founder (1908) Yana Avyl is considered to be Dolgov (Kataev) Ivan from Lower Bagryazh. Most likely, Mitrofanov Anisim Trofimovich (d. Kadyrovo) and Knyazev Nikita Fomich (d. Akhmet'evo) moved here along with him, and, perhaps, a little later, here too. And after them, but in the same year of 1908, the four Glukhov brothers, Mikhail, Grigory, Pavel and Semyon Andreyevich, from the Middle Bagryazh, and five Glukhov brothers (Alexey, Egor, Vasily, Terenty and Ivan) settled here with their families. ), but already Abramovich.
A document dated October 14, 1908 is known, according to which in 1908, 25 householders from different villages joined the Popov partnership and took a loan from the Ufa branch of the Peasant Land Bank to purchase land in the Zainsky volost of Menzelinsky district. It was allowed to buy land no more than 30 acres per yard at the rate of 9 acres per male. According to the document of the Ufa Provincial Zemsky Board of January 10, 1915 on the change in the settlement, according to the resolution of the Provincial Presence of December 8, 13 and 20, 1914, the Matkobashevsky settlement of 7 households (Akhmetyevsk volost of Menzelinsky district) and Bolshaya-Popovka were formed from land associations consisting of 46 households (Zainsk volost of Menzelinsky district).
Church
In 1921–1923, the Church of the “Mother of God” was erected to popular funds in the village of Popovka, which was named after the icon of the Virgin and Child (Izge Kyz Maria) found in 1921. The construction of the church in the name of the Life-Giving Trinity of the village of Verkhniy Bagryazh was taken as the basis for the construction, albeit in a reduced form. On January 19, 1935, the Church of the “Mother of God” was closed, and in the winter of 1937, the bells and crosses of the church were dropped. Some icons were burned, others along with church utensils were taken to Zainsk and Elabuga. Their fate is unknown, however, part of the icons and both crosses were miraculously preserved. People stealthily entered the church and saved at least. So, the icons of St. Nicholas and Alexander Nevsky are preserved. The icon of the Mother of God with the Baby has also survived to the present day, but where it is located is unknown. After the church was closed, the inhabitants of Popovka did not lose faith in God. As early as 1921–1922, a chapel was built on the site of the found icon, where believers came to pray. The chapel at the spring in the forest near Vinokourovka was also considered a holy place, where, until the 1950s, services were held on major holidays and Sundays. After the closure of the church, its building was transferred to a granary, and in June 1955, a village club was organized. Here they made an extension where the village council was located, the building was sheathed with slate and boards, and it completely lost its original appearance. On November 27, 2006, M. G. Maximov opened in the village of Popovka a parish of the Church of the Ascension, for the construction of which the land was allocated [2] .
Cemetery
On the territory of the village Popovka there are two cemeteries: Orthodox and Muslim. It is known that the first burial at the Orthodox cemetery was made in 1916, when the baby Glukhov Peter Semenovich was buried here. Near his grave is the first chapel, who served 43 years. In 1973, a new chapel was erected, which still operates today. In 2016, to the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Orthodox cemetery of the village of Popovka, the family of Vladimir Mikhailovich Vasilyev updated the chapel, which for many years decayed. Garifulla Gaifullin and Kalimulla were among the first buried in the Muslim cemetery at the beginning of the twentieth century.
