42 prisoners who worked at the brickworks in the Zykovo settlement (Zhelezlag, 1950-1953; Polyansky corrective-labour camp, 1953-1955) were buried in Lukino village graveyard.
Information about some deceased Gulag inmates can be found in Memorial’s Victims of Political Terror database with its 3 million entries, or in the Open List database (“Victims of Political Repression in the USSR, 1917-1991”). The Memorial online database lists 18,424 who were sent to the camps of the Krasnoyarsk Krai.
The map drawn by S.P. Kuchin shows Beryozovka (far left) on the banks of the Yenisei River and Zykovo to its south (click on image to see full picture). Krasnoyarsk-26, today Zheleznogorsk, is due north-east.
