History of the order "Mother-heroine".
The title of “Mother Heroine” is the highest degree of distinction of the Soviet Union, established for women for their merits in the birth and upbringing of children. For the first time in Russian history, a special award was introduced for mothers: the Order of the Mother Heroine. It is noteworthy that this title was established during the Great Patriotic War, which claimed the lives of millions of Soviet people. Most of the men who died at the fronts were young and middle-aged. The country's population has declined significantly. The introduction of the title “Mother Heroine” and the order of the same name emphasized how urgently the country needed young people at that time, a new generation of builders of communism.
The author of the design of the order is the artist Ganf I.A.
The first assignment of the honorary title "Mother Heroine" was made by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of October 27, 1944. Among the fourteen women awarded the title of “Mother Heroine” by this Decree, the Order “Mother Heroine” No. 1 and the Diploma of the Presidium of the USSR Armed Forces No. 1 were awarded to Anna Savelyevna Aleksakhina, a resident of the village of Mamontovka, Moscow Region, who raised 12 children. During the war, eight of her sons went to the front, four of them died. The award was presented to her in the Kremlin on November 1, 1944 [12], [19].

However, members of the CPSU were not found among the candidates for the high rank. I had to give Order No. 1 to the non-party Aleksakhina. She lived in a barracks. When the authorities came from Moscow to meet with a mother of many children, the day before, furniture was brought from the district committee to her barracks. After the departure of the commission, the furniture was taken back to the district committee.
