Radomysl Parish History

The Parish of Radomysl (1901)

The colonies within this parish, some of which dated back to the 1850s, were served until 1901 by the government pastor in Kiev. (The Parish of Kiev dated back to 1767, the pastor having been supported by the government since Catherine the Great funded this in 1787. In 1909 this support came from the city of Kiev.) The new parish included 28 colonies, 23 of which were in the County of Radomysl, 4 in Kiev County and 1 in Skwira County. A stately manse was built on land donated by the town of Radomysl in 1903, and funds were supplied for a church, but the only church building in the parish, as of 1909, was in Korostyschew. In 1904, by order of the Minister of the Interior, Radomysl's status was lifted from "Permanent Adjunct" to that of independent Parish.
