In 1910, 90 residents were registered in Sellwethen. On September 30, 1928, the two manor districts of Perkappen (now in Russian: Poltawskoje) and Wulfshöfen (Zwetkowo) were incorporated. The population rose to 437 by 1933 and was 370 in 1939.

As a result of the Second World War , Sellwethen and northern East Prussia became part of the Soviet Union in 1945 . In 1947 the place was given the Russian name Yegorjewskoje and was assigned at the same time to the village soviet Dobrinski selski Sowet in Gurjewsk Rajon .
