The martyr Evgenia was born in 1871 in Riga into the family of General Petr Domozhirov. She studied at the Institute of Noble Maidens in Warsaw and worked in a military hospital, later at the Alexandra-Mariinsky Institute. Evgenia did not marry and dedicated her life to serving God and people. In 1907, she moved to Moscow and worked as a nurse of mercy.
In 1912, after some illnesses, she left her work, but during World War I, she returned to service. In 1932, she was arrested by the OGPU. During the interrogations, she did not admit guilt in anti-state activities.
On July 9, 1932, the OGPU troika sentenced her to exile in Kazakhstan for three years. On January 18, 1933, on the eve of the Feast of Theophany, Evgenia passed away in the Almaty prison and was buried in an unmarked grave.
