Solomin

Solomin (Russian: Соломины, Solominy) is the ancient North-Russian family, which pretends to originate from the rich boyar family of Monastyrev, descendants of princes of Smolensk, which were one of the branches of Rurikids and the richest landlords in the Belozero Duchy except for the local rulers. Solomin’s conjectural forefather is Ivan Yakovlevich Aladyin, landowner in Putyvl (23rd generation from Rurik)), descendant of Beloozero patrimonial owners who were enlanded by tsar Ivan IV of Russia to Belgorod Fortified Line during oprichnina (after 1569). His sons Ivan, the Elder, nicknamed Soloma (the Straw) and Ivan, the Younger, nicknamed Soloma, started a continuous family (mentioned in (1588-1594). Since the revocation of oprichnina in 1572 some noblemen could return to their ancestor’s native land. The representatives of the family used to serve the abbots of Kirillo-Belozersky Monastery, bishops of Vyatka and as civil servants in several of Russian Empire’s provinces. By XVII century some of the branches were reduced in their social status to town-dwellers and then to peasantry. In the Vyatka region Solomins possessed quitrent villages, mow-meadows and pastures in Spentsyn, Volkovo and Berezov stans of Khlynov uyezd and collective quitrent lands in Kukarka. Large branches of Belgorod, Vologda, the Urals, the Siberian and Vyatka are supposed to exist today. The family is related with academician Alexander Bakulev, painters Ivan Shishkin and Yevgeny Charushin (through Yuferev), revolutionists Nikolay Charushin and Pavel Malkov, noble family of Korytin and princes Devetyarov.

The Solomins are the first family in the world, which was forgotten by genealogists and by History, and which proved their princely descent by Y-DNA testing.
