In 1653, the tax book of the patriarchal treasury indicated that near the Intercession Church in the village of Yakimovo there were "the houses of priests, deacons, sextons, prosphora bakers, three peasant houses, as well as in the parish: three landowners' houses, a clerk's house, 82 peasant houses, and 9 peasant houses."
In 1679, the clergy of the Intercession Church in Yakimovo included priest Mikhail Timofeyevich and deacon Fyodor Vasilyev.
According to the refusal book, on April 11, 1700, a property belonging to the deceased widow Avdotya Vasilyevna, wife of Semyon Romanovich Pozharsky, was recorded for the Great Sovereign in the village of Yakimovo. There was a wooden tent church in the name of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin, which housed holy icons: the Merciful Savior Not Made by Hands, the Intercession of the Holy Virgin, the Holy Virgin of Kazan, and the Holy Virgin of Odigitria. In the chapel of the prophet Elijah, there were royal doors, tin vessels, and three bells. The village also listed the house of priest Mikhail Timofeyev, the house of deacon Misha Yeremeyev, and the house of sexton Ivashka Andreev.
In 1775, the clergy of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin Church included priest Ivan Ivanov, deacon Mikhail Ivanov, and deacon Efim Nikitin. For the needs of the clergy, 37 desyatins and 880 sazhen of arable land were allocated.
In October 1809, in the village of Yakimovo, with the blessing of Archbishop Xenophon of Vladimir and Suzdal, a new wooden Intercession Church was consecrated, which did not stand for long. By 1818, parishioners began to petition for permission to build a stone church, which was completed by 1829. It was small, with five domes and a three-tiered bell tower, and was named in honor of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin with a warm chapel in the name of the holy prophet Elijah. Around the church was a stone fence, of which not a trace remains today.
The village of Shablino is now impossible to find. It was located just over two kilometers northeast of Yakimovo. In 1837, there were 199 residents, by 1904 only 36 remained, and now at the site of the village, there is only a small field surrounded by forest. The only reminder of the existing village is the "Shablino" pier on the Klyazma River. The village of Berchakovo once belonged to three landowners, and today there are hardly three houses left.
