Life

Holy Venerable Nicanor of Arkhangelsk struggled together with Saint Isaiah in the hermit's life on the bank of the river Ruchyi, in the Arkhangelsk region.

The Azbyka page says no more about their lives. Their memory is kept on 12 June, in the new style, and Nicanor is not included in the present calendar of the Russian Orthodox Church.
