History
Monument to World War II partisans in Mochalyshche

Mochalyshche was founded c. 1800.[1] Its first recorded appearance in a map in a location matching its modern coordinates was in the Russian Empire's Stolistovaya karta ("Capital map") in 1804.[5] As part of the Russian Empire, Mochalyshche was in the third Stan of Kozeletsky Uyezd; in Yaroslavl Volost.[6][7]

The village was recorded in the 1866 Russian Empire's list of settlements.[6] It was documented to have 22 homesteads, that housed a population of 181, whose water supply came from local wells.[6] Mochalyshche was subsequently logged in the list of inhabited places of the Chernigov Governorate in 1902,[7] where, in addition to recurring information from 1866, it mentioned that the village's population had grown to 538.[7]

On 18 December 1942, Mochalyshche was burnt down in a Nazi punitive expedition against local partisan activity, killing 267.[8] The village resurfaced on maps in 1987, presumably resettled near that time, it was documented in the Soviet General Staff map of the area surrounding Baryshivka.[9] Mochalyshche was then listed in the 1989 Soviet census, and recorded to have 145 inhabitants.[10]

Mochalyshche was under the local administration of Sokolivka rural council in Bobrovytsia Raion until 12 June 2020,[1][11] when administrative reforms in Chernihiv Oblast merged Sokolivka rural council with the rural councils of Nova Basan, Bilotserkivtsi, Vepryk, Voronky, and Novyi Bykiv, to form the Nova Basan rural hromada.[12] Under subsequent national administrative reform, on 19 July, Bobrovytsia Raion was merged into the newly formed Nizhyn Raion.[13]

Demographics

According to demographic statistics published by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, as of 2012, Mochalyshche has a population of 141 people,[1] growing by 0.7% (1 resident) from the 2001 Ukrainian population census,[14] but declining by 2.76% (4 residents) from 1989.[10]

Language

In the 2001 population census, 97.16% of the population (136 residents) indicated their native language was Ukrainian, while the remaining 2.84% (4 residents) indicated it was Russian.[3]
