Glagolev, Aleksey Glagoleva, Tatyana Palyan (Glagoleva), Magdalina (Mariya) Glagolev, Nikolay Father Aleksey Glagolev was an Orthodox priest in the Pokrov Church, in the Podol (today Podil) neighborhood of Kiev. Glagolev was the son of Professor Aleksandr Glagolev, who taught Jewish Studies at the seminary in Kiev. The professor was known for having spoken in defense of Menachem Mendel Beilis when he was accused in a blood libel case (1911-1913). Aleksey Glagolev was married to Tatyana and they had two teenage children, Mariya and Nikolay, and a baby daughter born during the German occupation. In early October 1941 the Glagolevs were visited by Mariya Yegorycheva*, Aleksey’s sister-in-law, who pleaded that they help Izabella Mirkina, her brother’s Jewish wife. Mirkina was hidden in Yegorycheva’s house but it was too dangerous to remain there. Tatyana Glagoleva proposed that they switch the photograph in her identity card with one of Mirkina, which was successfully accomplished. Provided with the ID as well as with Tatyana’s baptism certificate, Mirkina then left Kiev, but one month later she returned to the Yegorychevs’ home. Her sister-in-law then approached the Glagolevs again, and they welcomed the Jewish woman into their home, introducing her to people as Aleksey’s niece. In 1942, Mirkina’s daughter Irina, who had been hiding in the Yegorychevs’ home until then, joined her at the Glagolevs’. The very same year the Glagolevs and their wards moved to a village but in January 1943, Mirkina and her daughter were forced to return to Kiev, for reasons of safety, where they hid in the bell tower of Pokrov Church until the Glagolevs returned home, too. During the war, Glagolev also helped Tatyana Sheveleva, a Jewish woman married to a Ukrainian, and her mother Yevgeniya. He provided them with baptism certificates made out in Ukrainian names and allowed them to live in one of the buildings on the grounds of the church. The Glagolevs’ children, Mariya andNikolay, helped their parents in their efforts to save Mirkina and her daughter and Sheveleva and her mother. On September 12, 1991, Yad Vashem recognized Aleksey and Tatyana Glagolev, and their daughter, Magdalina (Mariya) Palyan, as Righteous Among the Nations. On October 8, 2000, Yad Vashem recognized Nikolay Glagolev as Righteous Among the Nations.
