Zinoviev, Paramon-Sydavnoy Vasilievich

It was first mentioned in 1595, when his signature, as a clerk, is found under letters . In 1607, during the uprising led by I.I. Bolotnikov , when Tsar Vasily Ivanovich Shuisky went with an army near Tula , clerk Zinoviev was in a profitable regiment with Koroshi, with the boyar and governors Prince Andrei Vasilievich Golitsyn and Gavriil Grigorievich Pushkin . Then we see him near Kaluga with the princes: Fedor Ivanovich Mstislavsky , Mikhail Vasilievich Skopin-Shuisky and Boris Petrovich Tatev . He also participated in the autumn campaign, when Prince Skopin-Shuisky beat thieves in Pakhra; and stood beyond the Moscow river at the Serpukhov Gate with the princes: Skopin, Golitsyn and Tatev ^[1] .

In 1608, when the “ Tushinsky thief ” False Dmitry II came near Moscow with the hetman M. O. Ruzhinsky , Zinoviev was in the Big Regiment with the boyars and governor: Prince Skopin, Ivan Nikitich Romanov and Prince Vasily Fedorovich Mosalsky ^[1] .

At the end of 1608 and in 1609, when Prince Skopin was busy hiring an auxiliary Swedish army, he took Zinoviev with him as an experienced, efficient and well-known clerk. They went to Vyborg , on behalf of Prince Skopin, his brother-in-law Semyon Vasilievich Golovin and Paramon-Sydavnoy Vasilievich Zinoviev. They concluded there with the plenipotentiaries of the Swedish king Charles IX a contractual record of the friendly union of the Moscow state with Sweden , the hiring of Swedish soldiers and the concession for this by the Moscow state of the city of Korela with the county that Sweden so sought. In the approved letter regarding Korela’s concession, Prince Skopin put it this way: “ On my orders, the captain Golovin and the clerk Sydavnoy Vasilyev in Vyborg with the royal and duma plenipotentiaries agreed to give them complete sanction .” The Vyborg treatise was approved by a cross kiss and records of persons who concluded it. Prince Skopin, sending letters through the cities and notifying the movement of the Swedish auxiliary troops, wrote to Vologda in the second half of March 1609 that Golovin and Zinoviev " with large people (that is, with a large number of military people) came to Dudorovsky Pogost " ^{[ 1]} .

In August 1610, in a troubled time , when the Boyar Duma ruled all affairs, it was decided to send a great embassy to Poland to King Sigismund III and his son, Prince Vladislav , to invite Vladislav to the Moscow throne. At the head of the embassy were: Rostov Metropolitan Filaret and Prince Vasily Vasilyevich Golitsyn ; then followed: the deceased prince Mezetskiy, the duma nobleman Sukin, the duma clerk Tomil Lugovskoy and the clerk Sydavnoy Vasiliev; from clergy: Spassky Archimandrite Euthymius, Trinity Cellar Abraham Palitsyn and others; in addition, " elected people of different ranks ." The embassy contained up to 1250 people. In September, two letters of credence were given to the ambassadors from the clergy and secular of all ranks and titles of people for an agreement with Sigismund regarding the conditions for inviting king Vladislav to the kingdom. Upon the arrival of the Moscow ambassadors to the royal camp near Smolensk , they repeatedly gathered for negotiations with Polish pans; there were six congresses, but they didn’t agree on anything. In early December 1610, Metropolitan Filaret and Prince Golitsyn learned that the duma nobleman Sukin, the clerk Sydavnoy Vasilyev, Spassky archimandrite Euthymius, the Trinity cellar Avraam Palitsyn and many nobles and various officials, having received letters from the king to estates and other awards, were sent home. Chancellor Sapega wanted in some way to shake the firmness and thoughtful clerk Tomila Lugovsky and invited him to his place at the time when Sukin and Sydavnoy Vasiliev, in rich elegant attire, were preparing to go on vacation to the king ^[1] .

The sight of these two embassy members about to leave left Lugovsky with a completely different impression than Sapega was counting on. Lugovskoy said to the chancellor: “ It ’s not heard anywhere that the ambassadors do as Sukyn and Sydavnaya do: leaving the state and zemstvo affairs and their comrades, they’ll go to Moscow! let go, we all ate too, the same help was given to all of us. God judges them that they do so! "The next day, Filaret and Prince Golitsyn called for Sukin, Sydavny and Spassky archimandrite (Abraham Palitsyn said he was sick and did not go to them) and exhorted them, saying that they would remember God and their souls, would remember how they were released from the cathedral Church of the Most Holy Mother of God, as blessed by Patriarch Hermogenes. They answered: “The king sent us with his sheets to Moscow for his state affairs: and how can we not go? " ^[1] .

In 1612, under the diploma of the Moscow state, the boyars and governor and Prince Dmitry Mikhailovich Pozharsky to the Sol-Galitsky city clerk Michurin on the non-collection of couch and Cossack feed from the fatherland of Simonov Monastery signed: “ Prince Dmitry Pozharskaya. The intelligent deacon of Sydavnoy Vasiliev . " It follows that, upon returning from the embassy to Poland, Zinoviev joined the Zemstvo movement, which sought to establish order and cleanse the Moscow state from the Poles ^[1] .

In 1613, he signed under the letter of election to the kingdom of Mikhail Fedorovich Romanov . July 11 this year, on the day of the wedding to the kingdom of Mikhail Fedorovich, the boyars told Prince Ivan Borisovich Cherkassky , and then Prince Dmitry Mikhailovich Pozharsky . Gabriel Grigorievich Pushkin, “ standing by the fairy tale ”, beat the sovereign in the “ fatherland ” against Prince Pozharsky with his brow, because his parents had never been less than the Pozharsky. Mikhail Feodorovich ordered there to be “no place for his tsar’s wreath ”, and all the petitions filed on that day ordered Zinoviev to be resigned and, with all the boyars, to write about it. During the wedding of Mikhail Feodorovich to the kingdom, Zinoviev held a dish. The next day, in the name of Tsar Mikhail Feodorovich, he told the duma nobility to Kuzma Minin , and on July 13 - the treasury to Nikifor Vasilyevich Trakhaniotov ^[1] .

There is no need to list all the cases of localism that arose as Zinoviev’s duma clerk when he had to pass on the decisions of the sovereign or the boyars to the accused, it’s enough to dwell on only one case that arose in 1622, because it shows the incorrect transfer by Zinoviev of the conclusion made by the court regarding the petition in 1618 V.A. Tretyakov against Prince Yuri Petrovich Buinosov-Rostovsky . Zinoviev said in 1618 to V. Tretyakov: “ that he, Vasily, didn’t get enough of Prince Yury Buinosov, but didn’t reach even the last Rostov prince in the fatherland, but Vasily will be a bachelor to the Tsar, at least for the Rostov men’s, and the Tsar to Vasily ordered the defense to be given to the last prince of Rostov . ” Obviously, such a sentence hurt Tretyakov’s pride, and he tried to find out the reason that led the judges to come to this conclusion. “ Such de I am a fairy tale of accusation ,” Tretyakov said, “it’s a disgrace to be a young man without genealogy .” As often happened, consideration of the case followed only in 1622. It turned out that in reality there was neither a sovereign decree, nor a boyars verdict, according to which it was ordered that the last Rostov prince be given defense to Tretyakov: “ the dummy clerk Sydavnaya Vasiliev stole ... and this is not a viable thing: it’s great and small in Rostov’s princes are not equal Rostov; and now (1622) your sovereign, Vasily (Tretyakov), has granted you that I didn’t order the notes of the fairy tale to be put into action . ” In 1618, Sydavnoy-Vasiliev was in besieged Moscow , during the arrival of Prince Vladislav. In 1619, Prince Alexei Yurievich Sitsky was the judge in the Kazan Palace, and Sydavnaya Vasiliev and Fedor Apraksin (not to be confused with F.M. Apraksin , an associate of Peter the Great ; the latter was born almost half a century later) ^[1] .

The last mention in the "Palace ranks" of Zinoviev was found in 1622.
