It is interesting that Bishop Viktoryn served precisely in Cheboksary as a vicar of the Kazan Diocese. I did not know before that he was connected with the Volga region. Thanks for reminding me about this date.

Yes, I also read carefully that he was bishop of Ceboksari between 1868 and 1874. I didn't know about this connection with Volga at all, I found it interesting how a bishop from Podolia ended up there as a vicar. Thanks for the article, it's good to remember such lesser known servants.
