Marzoev, Islam-Bek T. THE RESIDENTS OF KARAGACH VILLAGE AND THEIR DESCENDANTS Print

Keywords: Caucasus, North Ossetia, civil war, national aristocracy, nobility, Кermenists, genealogy.

The article is devoted to the little-known and tabooed plot in the Soviet historiography — the demolition of the village of Karagach in 1918. Karagach, founded by privileged families in the second half of the XVIIIth century on the lowlands of the Digor Society of North Ossetia, was exposed to the red terror in its most severe manifestations, without any regard not only for mental attitudes and the common law of the people, but also for universal concepts of humanity. The event «forgotten» by history took place during the night of December 4, 1918, when the Bolshevik Kermenists attacked the village, levelled or burned the houses. Among the inhabitants of Karagach many were killed or wounded, including very old people, and the survivors were forced to seek refuge in other Ossetian communities outside Ossetia and Russia. The purpose of this study is to give a comprehensive and objective assessment of the historical event, to determine its political, social, demographic and other consequences, to trace the fate of the descendants of the immigrants through genealogical research. In this work, materials from the Central State Archive of the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania, field data, biographical and photographic materials of Karagach residents were used. A new source from the Scientific Archive of the North Ossetian Institute for Humanitarian and Social Studies — «Protocol of the elders of the Karagach parish of the 3rd section of the Vladikavkaz district of Aslanbek Dashiev February 1, 1919» is introduced into the scientific circulation, which contains a detailed description of the destruction of Karagach. As a result of the study, scientific assessment of the described event was given for the first time, which significantly complements the history of the Civil War in Ossetia, and also contributes to a more in-depth and updated study of the genealogy of the Ossetian families.
