The article and the documents (as its components) offer a profound research of
Smilianshchyna as the Grand Duke H. Potiomkin-Tavriis’kyi’s property in the context
of his motives respecting buying the given estate from Duke F. Liubomyrs’kyi. Due to
some new archival documents introduced in the scientific circulation for the first time, the
authors try to examine the initial stage of this “H. Potiomkin’s heritage” division between
his genetic relatives, as well as delimit the territory, with the numbered list of inhabited
localities included.
