History
Romanovka dates back to the beginning of the 18th century. The settlement was designated as Romanaisi on the Noterburgsky's map, drawn by P. Vasander in 1699. Gubki village belonged to the heirs of the deceased actual chamberlain Vsevolod Vsevolozhsky. The population in 1838 was 1404 men and 113 women. On the ethnographic map of St. Petersburg's Province by P.I. Koppen, 1849, Gubki is mentioned as "Huwa" village, inhabited by Ingrian–Savakotans.
In the explanatory text to the ethnographic map, the population of the village named Huwa (Gubki and Romanivka) is specified as the following: Ingrian–Savakotons - 102 men, 189 women, Finns - 21 men, 24 women, all together 234 residents.
According to "The topographical map of parts of St. Petersburg and Vyborg Provinces" in 1860 adjacent villages Gubki and Romanivka had up to 18 peasant households each. On the plan of the general land surveying of the Shlisselburgsky district, they are mentioned as Gubkina and Romanovka villages. In 1862, Gubki was a possessory village, with the water supply system, 41 yards, population of 119 men, 105 women and volost board.
