Yanovo

Yanovo, also called Vedomsha, was a village in the Pereyaslavl district belonging to Matvey Grigoryev, a member of the service gentry. Its church of Saint Nicholas was built in 1654 and rebuilt and consecrated in 1694. The parish records preserve the names of its clergy and the obligations attached to the church's lands. When the wooden building burned in 1783, a new church was built in the same year with the blessing of the bishop of Pereyaslavl.
