18th century

The village of Krasnoselovka arose in the XVIII century (according to some reports in 1753 ).

It was founded by immigrants from the settlement of Old Melova, immigrants from Ukraine, as well as landowners who received land by royal decree, who resettled their serfs on the land gifted by the king. Due to its location in a beautiful place, the village was called Krasnoselovka - that is, a beautiful village. Since not only Russians, but also Ukrainians were among the founders of the village, the communication language in the village was Russian-Ukrainian mixture (in local it is called Khokhlyachy language).

In 1789, the St. George Church was built here. Under it were 99 acres of well-groomed arable land. There were 1,500 parishioners. In 1865, in a settlement in 534 houses lived 2,720 souls .

During the Civil War, the new government was defended by 65 villagers. They fought with the White Cossacks as part of the 40th Bogucharsky division.

After the revolution, a partnership for joint land cultivation (TOZ) appeared in the village. It included 14 households. For TOZ, 200 hectares of land were allocated. The artel was called "The New Way." TOZ lasted until the organization of collective farms. In December 1929, on the territory of the village of Krasnosyolovka, the Lenin Way collective farm was organized, which was headed by a twenty-five thousandth worker Paramonov. In 1930, the collective farm was disaggregated and 5 farms appeared: The Way to Socialism, The Way of Lenin, The 20th Anniversary of the October Revolution, The Name of Krupskaya, and The Bolshevik.

In the early 1950s, collective farms enlarged again, and two farms “Name of Lenin” and “Name of Kalinin” remain in the village. Since 1953, there remains already one collective farm named after Lenin, which in 1959 was called Krasnosyolovsky. This farm was one of the best in the area.
