George Nicoloff Papers, 1935-2004 (majority within 1970-1990)

3.5 linear feet

George Nicoloff was a priest active in the Macedonian/Bulgarian Orthodox Church in the Detroit area from 1936 to 1991, and was a lifelong supporter of the movement for freedom and independence in Macedonia. His papers include his own sermons and religious writings, as well as records, papers and correspondence from St. Clement and St. Paul, the parishes where he served, and the Bulgarian Orthodox Diocese of the United States and Canada.

The George Nicoloff papers document the activities of a Macedonian/Bulgarian religious and cultural community in the late 20th-century United States. The papers are divided into five series: Personal Papers, Planners, Correspondence, Parish Records (St. Clement Ohridsky, St. Paul Macedono-Bulgarian Orthodox Cathedral) and the Diocese series.

Most of the correspondence and many other documents in this collection are written in the Bulgarian Cyrillic alphabet, and so could not be assessed for content at the time of processing. Correspondence in Bulgarian is included either at the back of general correspondence folders, or, when it exists in sufficient quantity and can be separated from the main body of correspondence, in separate folders. Folders containing material principally in Bulgarian have been so noted.
