Between 1940 and 1947 the agricultural outpost (No. 1) of the Molotov (Perm) Region department of Corrective-Labour Camps and Colonies was located at Gurino village. Its burial ground was on the outskirts of Gurino; prisoners were buried there in individual and common graves. These were originally marked by stakes bearing numbers, but none have survived.
It is unknown how many prisoners died and were buried there. A list of 118 people interred there was compiled from archival documents at the Information Centre of the regional Internal Affairs department. In 2000 thanks to T.N. Ponosova, a teacher at School No. 2 in Ilynka, a commemorative cross was erected in the burial ground.
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”).
