Abstract

For the first time archive documents and periodical press materials of the NEP period are introduced into scientific discourse. They allow to enhance the list of facts about a well-known in Tyumen family of merchants Zhernakovs coming from peasants of Sarapul uyezd. The documents from the 1920's confirm and supplement the information previously introduced into scientific discourse by Tyumen local historians, scientists and descendants of the Zhernakovs family. In addition, the analysis of the certificates and questionnaires of the employees of the Tyumen branch of GUM (1922-1926) allows us to trace the interrelation between merchant and Soviet trade. The author concludes that descendants of the private pre-revolutionary trade stood at the origins of Soviet trade continuing their labor activity as employees in state trading institutions.
