Certificate of Ekaterina Figurovskaya, issued in Vyatskie Polyany in July 1944.

Tamara Ivanovna Figurovskaya’s address in Vyatskie Polyany appears in the military report of her husband Yuri’s death in September 1942. According to the family manuscript, Alexandra Semenovna and her daughter Ekaterina also moved here from Arkhangelsk.

Address. Report S19 names Sovetskaya Street, house 88, as the address of Yuri’s wife in 1942. This is a certificate of Tamara's address on the date of the report; it does not record the home of all relatives.

Military context. In 1941, factories from Zagorsk and Lopasny were evacuated to Vyatskie Polyany; thousands of people came with them. This explains why the city was a major evacuation site. There is no document about the Figurovskys’ work at these factories.

Family route. Ekaterina Konstantinovna writes in the manuscript that after the difficult winter of 1941–1942, her mother and she left here from Arkhangelsk, where Yuri’s family was already located. The exact dates of the move and the relationship to the specific address remain open.
