History

edit

The village was built c. 1830s by Bulgarian refugees that came from a village named Vaisal (Odrinsko) & Stara Planina.[2]

At first this was not in Ukraine but it was called Besarabia and was part of Romania until 1879. In 1861–1862, there were 1568 refugees that came from Bulgaria.[3]
