Abstract
The article is about the interim results of the personal identification of cadets of the tenth class of wartime graduates of the Pavlovsk Military School, one of the most prestigious military educational institutions of the Russian Empire. It deals with the cadets of the above school, who were born in the territories that were part of the Moscow Military District of the Russian Empire. The data on the occupied areas and the ethnic composition of the regions that were part of the Moscow Military District at the end of the 19th century are given. The presented material demonstrates the collected biographical information and portraits of some of the named persons who have chosen the path to military service, becoming officers during the First World War. At the same time, those people turned out to be the eyewitnesses and direct participants in the landmark events of the first half of the twentieth century in the history of our country, such as revolutions, wars, emigration and repressions. The life path of some of the mentioned personalities is briefly described. The studies were carried out on the basis of the work with the funds of the federal and regional, as well as family archives. The publication serves as an example showing what questions can be answered thanks to the personal files of students in the Russian Empire. In addition, the publication is intended to help find the descendants of the people mentioned in the article, as well as to attract the attention of historians, local historians and just some concerned people who are able to provide additional information about named persons.
