I am french but looking for my adyghean-tcherkess ancestors, who were the Chiefs of the Bzhedukhov people (I have no futrher information on this people, except they are a adighe-circassian people). Their full name was Gerey (or sounding like) Hazhimukov. In the 19th century, the Russians took the son of the latest ruler (Alkhass Gerey-Hazhimukov) as amanat and changed his name from Temtetch Gerey Hazhimukov to Nikolay Gazhemukov.
I know they lived in the Kuban region, moved several times (Goryatchy Klyutch, Psekups, Ekaterinodar).
I have very few informations and would like get more.
Thanks.

: From the Columbia Encyclopedia:

: "..the Kuban region was from about the mid-18th cent. to 1920 the territory of the Kuban Cossacks. After Catherine II defeated (1775) the Zaporizhzhya Cossacks in Ukraine, some of them emigrated to Turkey, but in 1787 they were allowed to return and settle along the Black Sea between the Dnieper and the Buh rivers. Then known as the Black Sea Cossacks, they were in 1792 resettled in the Kuban region. Though they lost much of their freedom and their rights were restricted, they were granted local self-government in return for military service. In 1860 they were renamed the Kuban Cossacks, while defending the Kuban region from hostile Circassian mountaineers to the south. After the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, the Kuban Cossacks proclaimed an independent republic and fought against the Bolsheviks. After the civil war of 1918–20 the Soviet regime abolished their government, and their traditional privileges were abrogated."

: So it looks they were Ukrainians.

: : I was told by my father that my grandfather was a Seech-Kuban Cossack. Does anyone know any websites or books writen on Seech-Kuban Cossack? Also are the Seech-Kuban Cossack a distinct ethnic group or they belong to the Ukrainians or the Russians ethnic groups? I thank you for you help!
