Chervonianskaya was a Jewish colony located nine kilometers from Fastov, in Kiev region. Now it was a village called Krasnoye, Fastov district.
Before the Revolution it was a Jewish agricultural colony in Vasilkov uezd of Kiev gubernia.
It was founded in 1851 on state land. In 1898, there were 44 Jewish families, 312 people. The residents had 378 dessiatines (1,040 acres) of land.
The colony was destroyed during Denikin’s pogrom in 1919 but it was reestablished at the expense of AgroJoint (US funded) organization in the 1920’s. Several typical houses based on a American project were built here. During my visit in 2016 only one of those houses was preserved in its original appearance.

I haven’t found any information about the Jews of Chervonianskaya colony after the 1920’s.
In 2016, the locals didn’t even know that their village used to be a Jewish colony.
