Vassili Alexandrovich Pashkov, fl 1870-1901, was a colonel of the Russian Imperial Guard and a St Petersburg aristocrat. He was converted to Evangelical Christianity during revival meetings held by Lord Radstock (Granville Waldegrade), an Englishman. After Radstock was forced to leave Russia in 1878, Pashkov took over the movement. Pashkov too was exiled from Russia in the 1880s.References: Finding aid to the Pashkov Papers; web site of Wheaton College, Archives & Special Collections which holds a microfiche copy of the collection: http://www.wheaton.edu/learnres/ARCSC/collects/sc35/ (Accessed July 2002).
