Semyonov S.M.

Semyonov S.M. Semyonov Stepan Mikhailovich (1789-1852)

Stepan Mikhailovich was educated in Oryol seminary and studied at Moscow University. S.M. Semyonov was a member of The Union of Salvation (Soyuz Spaseniya) and The Union of Welfare (Soyuz Blagodenstviya) and was one of the leaders of the Northern society. After the suppression of the Decembrist revolt he was arrested in Moscow on December 29, 1825.

After being arrested he was kept in the Pyotr and Paul Fortress (Petropavlovskaya krepost) for more than 9 months. “By an imperial order” on October 26, 1826 he was sent to exile “for employment” without losing his title.

On November 19, 1826 he was sent to work at the disposal of governor general of Western Siberia and was assigned to the office of Omsk regional council, from Omsk he was sent to Ust Kamenogorsk and appointed stolonachalnik of the district in February 1828.

On the whole Stepan Mikhailovich Semyonov spent 3 years in Ust-Kamenogorsk: since February 1827 till March 1830 with short intervals. In 1829 S.M. Semyonov assigned to accompany Baron Alexandr Humboldt, a famous German naturalist, in his trip to Western Siberia. However, a good reference to Stepan Mikhailovich’s erudition given by the traveler to Nicholas I of Russia had a negative result: S.M.Semyonov was transferred to outland Turinsk where he worked in Turinsk chancellery. Since 1832 he was the stolonachalnik of the chancellery of Western Siberia headquarters, since 1841 – the counselor of the frontier administration of Siberian kirgizs and soon he was appointed the provincial government counselor and held this rank till his death. He died in Tobolsk and was buried in the city cemetery Zavalnoye.

The written sources collection relict of East Kazakhstan regional museum of history gives the evidence of Stepan Mikhailovich staying in our city. This is the parish register of the first half of XIX century. S.M.Semyonov was registered as “godfather” five times in 1827-1829. Thus a nobleman S.M.Semyonov “became related” with a future miner, a Cossack uryadnik and a servant.

The contemporaries of S.M. Semyonov remembered him as a man “with steady, independent and honest beliefs”.

 

Semyonov-Tien-Shansky P.P.

Semyonov-Tien-Shansky P.P. Pyotr Petrovich Semyonov-Tien-Shansky (1827-1914), scientist and geographer

Pyotr Petrovich Semyonov, a famous geographer and statistician, who opened the Tien Shan uplands and therefore since 1906 had the surname Semyonov-Tien-Shansky, chaired the Russian Geographical society for a number of decades. Future scientist was born in a country farm of Ryazan guberniya on January 14, 1827.

In 1848 Pyotr Petrovich Semyonov graduated from the department of natural sciences in the St. Petersburg University and decided to dedicate himself to Russian science. He is known as botanist, geologist, zoologist as well as economist, statistician and painting expert.

In 1856 P.P.Semyonov set forth on his first expedition to Tien Shan. The route laid through the territory which formed sort of trapezium with the apices in Zmeinogorsk - Ust Kamenogorsk – Ridder - Semipalatinsk. The explorer spent 40 days in the valleys and mountains of Altai. He visited all the mines of Zmeinogorsk group and those that were situated along the Ulba and Uba rivers.

The most interesting trip was the trip to river-valleys of Uba and Ulba. In his diaries Semyonov-Tien-Shansky described the beauty and rich nature of the places of expedition: from the village of Shemonaikha situated on the right bank of Uba where the river moves out of the valley to the steppe, to Vydrikha and Lossikha. The scientist visited the village of Sekissovka wondering about the way of life of Cossacks and Old Believer settlers which is clear from the notes of the journey. Having visited Bobrovka and Cheremshanka, the explorer stopped by “a large village Butachikha which is situated in the valley nearby the place where Ulba is formed from the junction of its branches”. The explorer was very impressed by one of the branches: “the most interesting of them is a loud, fast and foamy mountain stream which originates from the snows of Ulbinskiye Whites (belki) and is named by locals as Gromatukha”.

When the members of the expedition arrived in Ridder they stayed at the house of a hospitable educated mining engineer of the Ridder mine. Next day they, together with a forester Kopteyev, they made an attempt to climb Ivanovsky White (belok). “Vast area which forms the top, - Semyonov-Tien-Shansky wrote – is composed of many plane granite rocks. The view from the edge of this area was extremely extensive and magnificent. At the back the Gromatukha water-gap is capped by the chain of hills Ulbinskiye Whites, and Prokhodnoi and Rassypnoi hills are the most prominent among them. At the front the Turgussunskiye Whites are seen, and on the left, across the Ridder valley there is Ridderskaya Sinyukha and Ubinskiye Whites”.

The explorer left Ridder on July 27, 1856. He described the further way to his dream - Tien Shan – in the book “Travels to Tian-Shan”.

P.P. Semyonov-Tien-Shansky lived a long and nice life full of work and creativite quest. His scientific and social activity was highly appreciated by the contemporaries. The geographer was an honorary member of 53 Russian and foreign organizations, a full-fledged member of 12 and a corresponding member of 8 scientific, mostly foreign, associations.

He died on February 26, 1914.

Спасский Г. И.

Спасский Григорий Иванович - горный инженер цинка, историк, археолог, исследователь.Спасский Григорий Иванович (1783-1864) - горный инженер, историк, археолог, исследователь Казахстанского Алтая.

Период конца 18-го и начала 19-го веков известен как время расцвета добычи полезных ископаемых на Алтае. Здесь работало много талантливых инженеров, врачей, изобретателей, ученых. Одним из них был Григорий Иванович Спасский - неутомимый исследователь и популяризатор истории Северо-Восточного Казахстана, издатель и редактор первого Сибирского журнала.

Родился в 1783 г. в семье священника в г. Егорьевск Рязанской губернии Российской империи. В 16 лет устроился на работу в Москву в качестве сотрудника районного суда.
Позже Г. И. Спасский служил в Санкт-Петербургском горнорудном совете и одновременно учился в Академии наук и в педагогическом институте. Его увлечение естественными науками, трудолюбие и любознательность были замечены и в конце 1803 г. Томский губернатор пригласил его работать в Сибирь.

Григорий Иванович с большим удовольствием принял это приглашение. И он был заинтересован не только в работе там, но и в возможности изучения достопримечательностей этой малоизученной страны. В 1809 г. Г. И. Спасский был отправлен на шахту Бухтарминского (на территории нынешней Восточно-Казахстанской области) в качестве начальника.

Находясь в распоряжении начальника округа (1810-1812), «при бергмейстерской должности» в Змеиногорском руднике (1812-1817), накопил богатейший материал по истории, археологии, этнографии, природе и эпиграфике. С 9 марта 1802 г. был членом Вольного общества любителей словесности, наук и художеств.

Собрал большую археологическую коллекцию («бугровые» вещи), которая ныне хранится в Историческом музее в Москве.

В 1817 г. переехал в Петербург, где совместно с В. В. Дмитриевым основал первый в России краеведческий журнал «Сибирский вестник» (в 1825-1827 - «Азиатский вестник»), в нём публиковались материалы по истории Сибири и Алтая, летописи и отчеты о путешествиях. В первом номере журнала он опубликовал материал о Восточном Казахстане. В  последнем он описал села алтайских каменщиков.

Проделал огромную работу по созданию «Горного словаря» (1841-1843) - энциклопедии горнозаводского производства 18-19-го (1-я половина) вв.

Осуществил очередную, последнюю в 19 в., публикацию Книги Большому чертежу (1846).

В 1827 г., когда он перестал работать в издательском деле, его основным занятием было изучение древностей Крыма. Он собирал монеты, изучал надписи, записывал суеверия и раскопал. Он также изучал наскальные рисунки и каменные изображения, скопированные в 1809 г. вблизи Бухтармы.

Его статьи о Сибири и Казахстане были широко опубликованы различными российскими научными обществами. В «Горном журнале» появились такие статьи, как «О содержании золотоносных Песков и золотых приисков в Киргизско-Кайссатской степи и особенно в соседних государствах» и «Письмо председателю научного комитета по горнорудной и гидрохлористической деятельности е. в. Корнееву о памятниках Бухтарминской крепости в Сибири». Григорий Иванович Спасский собрал и обобщил много материала об истории добычи полезных ископаемых на Алтае, в том числе и в Казахстане.

Скончался 29 апреля в 1864 г.

Fyodorov A. N.

Fyodorov A. Alexander Nikolayevich Fyodorov (1857 - 1918)

Alexander Nikolayevich Fyodorov was born in Shadrin Uyezd of the Permian Guberniya in 1857. His father put him to a theological seminary because therea were no other schools in a district at that time. Fyodorov studied with D.N. Mamin-Sibiryak, A.S. Popov, a future inventor of the radio, and other talented people. Yearning for deep knowledge brought him to St. Petersburg. He became a student of the biological department of St.Petersburg University, took classes of well-known scientists – D.I. Mendeleyev, A.M. Butlerov, A.O.Kovalevsky, and others. Academician Butlerov was known not only as a chemist but also as an enthusiast and bee-keeping popularizer. His pasionate and exciting stories about bees’ life influenced the life choice of Fyodorov later on.

Knowledge of the articles of the revolutioners-democrats, student meetings and discussions about the future of Russia brought him to the illegal coterie. Fyodorov was expelled from of the University soon for his anti-governmental activity. He was exiled to the Western Siberia for 5 years along with other 4 active participants of the Odessa revolutionary coterie in the second half of 1883. Ust-Kamenogorsk was determined as his location. He arrived in Ust-Kamenogorsk in August 1884.

Half-starved life began. He was prohibited to work in the government units and schools. Fyodorov was doing bookbinding, tutored in the houses of rich people.v
At the first days of his arrival to Ust-Kamenogorsk Fyodorov noticed a unique abundance of the mellifluous flora in this place. Boundless sea of flowers spread in the rivers and mountains' valleys, on the hillsides. He bought a small apiary by the Ulbinsky village for his meager money and savings of his mom who came to visit him. To acquire practical skills the first-time beekeeper became a pupil of one local - Petrov.

His exile terminated on October 5, 1888. As far as Fyodorov was prohibited to live in Central Russia he decided to stay in Ust-Kamenogorsk forever to devote his life to the labor of love. Fyodorov planned to stop old way bee-keeping with the "grandfathers' methods". He arranged his apiary according to the best world models, started using frame hives and supplied his apiary with needed equipment.

He was the first in Altay who started the production of an artificial empty honeycomb with the use of Ritzshe wafer-iron. Beekeepers from outskirts, nearest and quite distant Russian cities came to see the peculiar apiary with the "bee houses" and meet Fyodorov. He realized imperfection of European and American hives after he mastered frame bee keeping. It couldn't stand severe frost. Alexander Nikolayevich and his friend exiled Mihaelis E.P. created a hive of their own construction and named it "Altaysky". Its great characteristics were appreciated with a diploma of All-Russian Nizhny Novgorod exposition in 1896. Famous hive started to spread among bee keepers of Russia rapidly. According to the "Russian bee keeper's leaflet" reports the "Altaysky" hive penetrated even into Taurida (Crimea Republic nowadays).

Fyodorov was appointed a bee keeping instructor of the Semipalatinsk region. That's when his educational activity started. He arranged over 10 bee keeping courses, several expositions, delivered many lectures, marked a net of model hives. He was one of the first who started ordering seeds of honey plants and distribute them among the local bee keepers. Under his direction 2 congresses of South-Western Altay bee keepers took place in Ust-Kamenogorsk in 1915 and 1916. They summarized the best hives' experience. A number of frame hives of East Kazakhstan's apiaries rose up to 10, 000 by May 1918. Fyodorov found the unique museum of the bee keeping history in Ust-Kamenogorsk and collected an interesting library. But unfortunately neither archives, nor his library, except some documents, were found after tumultuous events of the 20 century.

Fyodorov actively took part in social and scientific life of the city. He published some articles about bee keeping problems while he was a member of Russian geographical society. Also he participated in construction of the "National House" and planting of greenery in the city. Fyodorov and other political exiles rendered great services for the library science development and education in Ust-Kamenogorsk.

The First World War, his students and assistants' deaths, and a long illness overtaxed his health. He died at the age of 62 on April 22, 1918.
