Nikol'skoye Andomsky

Nikolskiy Andomskiy Pogost stood on the Andoma River in the country east of Lake Onega. Its name joined the river to the church of Saint Nicholas that served the district. In the survey of 1582–83 the churchyard district included 191 inhabited villages, as well as new settlements, deserted villages and abandoned lands. Its wooden churches included one dedicated to Saint Nicholas and another to the Transfiguration, centres of worship for a widely scattered rural population.
