Notes

  • {{Note|dates}}Dates indicated by the letters "O.S." are Old Style. All other dates in this article are New Style.
  • {{Note|transliteration}}There is some general confusion over transliterations into the Latin alphabet from the Russian Cyrillic. Although the variant "Feodor" often appears as in the title of the referenced article, "Fyodor", as the name is rendered here, is a more accurate representation. The Russian Cyrillic equivalent is ?????, the second letter of which takes the sound "yo". It should be noted passim that one very rarely sees the form ? in print. The dieresis is almost always omitted leaving a bare e, unless the text is a primer with a target audience of young children who have not yet learned to read.
