The political and administrative history

The Imperial Russian period 1793–1917

After the second partition of Poland in 1793, the Bratslav voivodeship became the Bratslav vicegerency in the Russian Empire. In 1796 it was divided between the Podilia gubernia and Kiev (Ukrainian: Kyiv) gubernia. The Kiev gubernia was divided into 12 counties (Russian: uezd), one being Lipovets (Ukrainian Lypovets) uezd. The village of Andrushivka from now on belonged to Kiev gubernia and Lipovets uezd. Andrushivka also was the central village of one of Lipovets uezd's 16 sub-districts (Russian: volost). After the reforms of the emporer Alexander II in 1861 each such volost elected among the peasantry a volostnoj starshina.

Kiev gubernia divided into its 12 uezds in the 1850s.

Lipovets uezd (Lypovets county) in the 1850s.
