A children’s home for orphans of dekulakized peasant families was opened in Krylovka in March 1932 and by May the following year it had more than 180 children. Those who died were buried, in mass and individual graves, in a separate section of the village graveyard.
The Memorial online database (2025) includes 197,129 from Tomsk Region police records who were deported, mainly to special settlements in the Region (146,154) or who were subsequently born there (38,293). See Mount Kashtak.
Of the 106,000 convicted in 1930-1931 and sent to the Region as members of “dekulakised” families almost a third were aged between one and ten: 1,119 of them died in the coming six years, the majority of those born in 1927-9.
