Voznesenka (Saratov region)

The village is located in the steppe on the left bank of the Mechetka River, which is the right tributary of the Big Karaman . A significant number of dams are arranged on the Mosque itself and on its small tributaries. To the south of the village is the Batratsky pond, southwest, downstream, beyond the Saburovka tract - the Saburovsky pond.

Northeast of Voznesenka, at the source of the Mechetka, is the village of Lipovka , the center of the rural settlement. In the north is the village of Chkalovka . In the northwest there is the tract Novy Put and, to the north, the village of Kirovskoye . To the west of Voznesenka is the village of Illichivka , which is also located on the banks of the Mechetka and, even further downstream, a large ravine Eighteenth, filled with water from one of the tributaries of the Mechetka. Behind him is the village of Kalinin .

In the south-west, behind the Saburovsky pond and Mechetka, there are three lines of the major Central Asia - Center gas pipeline. South and southeast - the valley of the Bolshoi Karaman River, also characterized by the presence of a large number of artificial ponds in small tributaries of the river. In particular, on the northern shore there are Leimanovsky, Kravtsov ponds (south of Kravtsov, directly on the river bank - the Putevaya Zvezda tract), Sadki, Bugrovka, a pond in the Zhuravlin ravine and a pond in the Zhuravlin tract. Between Kravtsov and the gully Zhuravlin - a small oil field. In the south-east and east of Voznesenka, north of the valley of Bolshoi Karaman, many small reservoirs that are not connected with river systems (Salovsky pond, Kosy pond, Shmidsky pond, ponds in the village of Solnechny and others) are scattered across the steppe ^{[3] [4]} .

Unlike many modern settlements of the Marxian region, Voznesenka had never previously had a German name and, apparently, was not a colony of Volga Germans .

The settlement "Voznesenskaya" (not designated, unlike a number of neighboring settlements, as a "colony") is already on the map of European Russia and the Caucasus region in 1862, belonging to the category of the smallest settlements ("villages, outskirts, colonies, dungeons, farms and kishla (pens) ”) ^[5] . The nearest settlement, a little southwest of the Ascension, was the Baronsky farm ; Mechetka River, on which both villages stood, flowed in the same direction as now, flowing into Karaman ^[6] .

However, as of 1872 (Special Map of European Russia by I. A. Strelbitsky , compiled in 1865-1871, sheet 92), Voznesenskaya and Baronsky already stood on the banks of Maly Kushum . The source of the Mechetnaya River shifted to the area southwest of the current ravine of the Eighteenth, south of the modern village of Kalininsky. The former upper reaches of the Mechetka were occupied by a watercourse originating, probably, in the current ravine Eighteenth (that is, in our time it is only a small influx of the Mechetka). The stream rushed past Voznesenskaya and Baronsky in the opposite direction, not to the south-west, to Bolshoy Karaman, but to the northeast, to Bolshoi Irgiz , making up the main channel of the Small Kushum (now the source of the Small Kushum is located north-east of Lipovka, near the village of Zarya ) .

Ascension for 1872 was a relatively large settlement of 60 yards, Baronsky - the size of 10-20 yards. The reissue of the map of I. A. Strelbitsky from 1919 gives the same data ^[7] . The river on which Voznesenskaya was located belonged to the Greater Irgiz basin, at least until the beginning of the 20th century (see the map of the Samara province in 1900, the Small Kushum there is designated as the Mechetnaya river, the influx of the Big Karaman is not named on the map ^[8] ; for the correct designation of rivers, see the Atlas of A. F. Marx, 1909 ^[9] ).

According to 1912, Voznesenka (already with a modern version of the name) was a village in the Kaluga volost of the Novouzensk district of the Samara province. South-west of Voznesenka, on Mechetka (the river acquired its current configuration, with its source in the Lipovka region), in the place where the Baronsky farm was previously located, the villages of Saburovsky No. 1 , Saburovsky No. 2 and Saburovsky No. 3 ^[10] were noted (see above) about the tract Saburovka).

During the existence of the Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic of the Volga Germans, the Ascension (Mechetka) was part of the Fedorov canton , and the border between the cantons passed along the Mechetka River - on the opposite, western bank there was already the territory of the Marxstad canton . Since 1935, after the disaggregation of the Fedorov canton, Voznesenka belonged to the Gnadenflur canton . In it, Ascension was the center of the village council.

In the village at that time there was a machine and tractor station serving the fields of Voznesenka, Putevoy Zvezda (see above about the tract of the same name), Strassenfeld , Lipovka, Bobovo , and Voskresenki ^[11] . At the same time, as of 1934, the set of farms designated as Strassenfeld (Saburovsky villages) consisted of the Bordovsky farm (at the site of the current tract Saburovka) and the Strassenfeld farm itself , which was located downstream of the Mechetka, below both the Saburovsky pond and rivers (that is, in fact, in two cantons) ^[12] .

After the abolition of the Gnadenflur canton in 1941, while remaining the center of the village council, it entered the Pervomaisky district of the Saratov region.

According to the 2010 census , 47.5% of men and 52.5% of women lived in the village. The national composition of the population was as follows:

• Russians - 70.3%;
• Kazakhs - 12.3%;
• Lezgins - 11.4%;
• others - 5.9% ^[17] .

According to the 2002 census , 196 men and 213 women lived in the village, 75% of the population were Russians ^[18] .
