Scope and Content of Collection
These papers contain the personal papers of Archimandrite Polikarp (Gorbunov). After the Russian Revolution, Archimandrite
Polikarp found himself in Harbin, China, where he was closely associated with Metropolitan Meletii (Zaborovskii), and was
assigned as rector of the Annunciation cathedral. After fleeing from Harbin, Archimandrite Polikarp relocated to Hong Kong,
and finally emigrated to the U.S.A., where he entered Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, N.Y. The Subject file includes
an inventory of ecclesiastical items of the Harbin Annunciation cathedral.
Detailed processing and preservation microfilming for these materials were made possible by a generous grant from the National
Endowment for the Humanities and by matching funds from the Hoover Institution and the Holy Trinity Seminary. The grant also
provides depositing a microfilm copy in the Hoover Institution Library & Archives. The original materials remain in the Holy
Trinity Seminary Archives as its property. A transfer table indicating corresponding box and reel numbers is appended to this
register. Any views, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed in these materials do not necessarily represent those
