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.
