History
Origin
The origin of the name of the genus is associated with the city of Porkhov , which was part of the Novgorod principality . However, the exact origin of the Porkhovskys in primary sources is not indicated, it is known that they were a branch of the Smolensk Rurikovich .
Researcher of the Moscow boyar nobility S. B. Veselovsky noted that “the inconsistency of the genealogy of the Smolensk princes does not allow us to relate Porkhovskys with their clan with confidence.” He writes that a number of genealogies indicate in the last great prince of Smolensk, Yuri Svyatoslavich , the 4th son, Ivan Svyatoslavich Porkhovsky. Referring to other genealogies, Veselovsky indicates that Ivan Svyatoslavich had an unnamed son, from whom the origin of the Porkhovskys, as well as 2 daughters, was derived. One daughter was married to the Prince of Galicia, Yuri Dmitrievich , the other - to the Lithuanian Prince Svidrigailo [1] . Veselovsky calls this son Ivan, but does not cite sources for his approval [2] .
Polish historian J. Wolf noted that after the capture of Smolensk in 1404 by the Grand Duchy of Lithuania Prince Fedor Yuryevich was put in Porkhov for feeding, where he remained until January 1412. He later left for the Holy Roman Empire , where he died in 1420 during a crusade against the Hussites . Wolf indicates that Fedor was childless. On the basis of Russian pedigrees, he indicates the ancestor of the Porkhov princes Ivan Svyatoslavich, whom he shows the sons of Andrei and Semen [3] [2] .
At the Moscow service
Subsequently, the Porkhovskys are mentioned in the Moscow service. So, in a battle with the Tatars near Belev , Andrei Vasilievich and Kuzma Porkhovskaya were killed; in the battle of Suzdal - Yuri Porkhovsky (who owned Nerekhta in the Kostroma district). Prince Stepan Porkhovsky was sent from Velikiye Luki to Toropets in 1509. Prince Boris Porkhovsky drowned near Kazan (year not specified). Prince Danila Dmitrievich was written in 1551 in the Moscow children of the boyars. and from 1555 to 1558, the mayor in Sviyazhsk. [four]
Over time, the Porkhovskys lost their princely title; in the sixteenth century they are referred to as landowners in the Vodskaya , Shelonsky Pyatiny, Kostroma Uyezd , near Moscow [1] .
