Hi Jon,

There are also several Old Believers groups still remaining in
Russia, particularly in the Lake Baikal area. Another name for them is
the Semeiskie from the Russian Semya meaning family. Really fantastic
people. I have heard about Nikolaevsk in Alaska. Having met several Old
Believers in Russia, it would be really interesting to meet them in North
America. Thanks for the info.

Jim
