The Kobuzev family (also spelled: Kobyzev, Kobozev, Kobzev; Russian: Ко́бузевы, originally spelled: Кобузё́вы) is an ancient Russian noble family descended from Ryazanian boyar scions.

History

[edit]

The family's name stems from the name of the founder – Kobuz. Kobuz was a personal male Slavic Pagan name meaning 'hawk'..[1] The name has Lechitic origins. In the form of Kobus it is still found in Pomerania. Poles still refer to the Eurasian hobby as 'kobuz' (pronounced as kobus). As a personal name or a nickname, Kobuz (Russian: Кобуз, Кобузь) is found in written sources of the region of the Oka river, particularly the area of Ryazan.[2] However, it is uncertain what status the family's progenitor had, while the Kobuzev family appears by the late 15th – early 16th centuries in the surviving written sources already with their last name and members of the local landed aristocracy.

The earliest Kobuzev mentioned so far was 'Vasily Ananyin syn Kobuzev' (meaning: Vasily, son of Ananiy of the Kobuzev family), mentioned in 1491 as a witness on a report to the boyar of the Grand Duke of Ryazan Ivan IV of Ryazan, Ivan Ivanovich 'Inka' Izmaylov,[3] who was then the viceroy in Pereyaslavl of Ryazan and the commander of the Ryazanian troop.[4]

In 1514, Semyon Ivanov syn Kobuzev was mentioned in Vishgorod-on-Yahroma [ru] (now extinct town of the Principality of Dmitrov, appanage domain of the Duchy of Vladimir-Suzdal) as a witness (poslukh [ru]) on a deed of land purchase of the Nelidov family.[5] In 1524, his brother, Afanasy Ivanov syn Kobuzev was mentioned as a witness on a deed of land exchange.[6]

By the 17th century the Kobuzev family of Ryazan had at least two allods: the village of Timofeevo (Andreevskoe), sold to the Birkin family in 1601,[7] and the village of Tyutkosvoe, passed to the Likharyov family for overdue mortgage,[8] in Perevitsky stan (now: the district of Zaraysk, Moscow oblast).

The Kobuzev family served to both the Grand Dukes of Ryazan and the Ryazanian archbishops. In the late 16th century, with the establishment of the unified Moscow government, the family began to serve to the Dukes of Moscow. The Kobuzev family is mentioned in all of the surviving Ryazanian lists of serving gentry (desyatnyas [ru]): 1604, 1648, and 1676.

Already in the 16th century some of the family members served as Cossacks. In 1551, Ivan the Terrible moved the entire garrison of Perevitsk [ru] to the east to provide military forces for the new citadel of Sviyazhsk for his campaign against Kazan. One of the Sviyazhsk Cossack atamans was Alexey Kobyzev, who led a Cossack troop in a battle with the Chuvashy in 1552.[9] The battle was lost and the Cossacks had 70 men fallen.[9]

Proof of nobility

[edit]
The file cover of Aleksey Kobyzev's case of nobility from the State Archive of Ryazan Oblast

In 1801 one of the Zaraysk Kobuzev family's descendants attempted to prove nobility through his ancestry's landholding status. Due to the reforms started

by Peter the Great, who introduced new social estates, including dvoryanstvo, noble status in the Russian Empire could not be automatically inherited, and if not gained via the Table of Ranks, it should be proved that one's ancestry had noble status. In 1785, Catherine II introduced a Charter for nobility that suggested a list of indications of the 'ancient noble family' status.

Aleksey Petrovich Kobyzev, the son of Pyotr Prohorovich Kobuzev, a landlord of Argunovo hamlet, Zaraysk district, served at St. Peter fortress [ru] on the Siberian line [ru] (now the city of Petropavl, Kazakhstan) as a 13th class commissary of the Commisariat staff,[10] which did not allows of getting the official noble status. In 1801 he attempted to prove nobility of his family by approaching the noble assembly of the Ryazan governorate asking them to research the nobility of his father's family in the archives. The case took three years. The assembly failed to find anything on the family in the archives, apart from that his father actually owned a manor at Argunovo. However, it wasn't enough and the noble assembly rejected to accept Aleksey Kobuzev in Ryazanian nobility. Thus, the family was not included to the genealogical book of Ryazan, as was then required for families claiming hereditary nobility through their ancestry. The file containing the investigation of Aleksey's case is currently at the State Archive of the Ryazan Oblast (fonds 98, series 16, file 5).[11]
