Draft:Barsegh Gueghanyan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Barsegh Geghamjan (Armenian: Барсэгг Геггамян, born 1850 in Yerevan) was an Armenian civil servant, official, and mayor of Yerevan.[1]

Geghamjan was educated in Moscow and then returned to Armenia, where, from 1875, he was in civil service in the Russian government of Yerevan, eventually earning the rank of collegiate assessor (following the civilian Russian rank table in the tsarist era).

From September 1884 to December 1893, Geghamjan was mayor of his hometown of Yerevan and, for a period in 1893, also prefect of Nor Bajazet (today known as Gavar).
