Kedrovsky family.

Hide Profile

In 1923 John Savva Kedrovsky (1879-1934) was appointed Archbishop of North America by a council of the "Renovated" or "Living Church" in Moscow. In the United States, Kedrovsky sued to gain possession of many church properties and succeeded in claiming St. Nicholas Cathedral in New York City in 1926. Most Orthodox in America did not follow Kedrovsky, and the American Church broke ties with the Russian hierarchy, declaring itself "temporarily self-governing" in 1924.
