Reprinted in spravochku theme of "Memoirs of FP Bierbaum"

Wigstrom Henrik Immanuel (Henrik Immanuilovich) (1862-1923). In Petrburge since 1878, a student in the studio jewelry, since 1884, he worked together with ME Perkhin. Perkhin and his wife were godparents of children Vigstrema. Perkhin bequeathed to convey his masteskuyu Wigstrom, as he was sure that he will not let the studio won fame.

How did all right: Michael Evlampievich Pershin, or Perkhin or Perihin?
I've seen in different sources Pershin and Perkhin ??:eek:

Of course Perkhin - typo kotorouyu I automatically when reprinting repeated, sorry.
Here is another fragmentets of memories (Dear uriart, I apologize for lyrical digressions in your theme)
"... Olonetskaya native province, he (Perkhin) arrived in St. Petersburg as a boy with no education, probably even illiterate. Hard work and resourcefulness managed to break out of the apprentice to master, to organize a workshop with the company and to attract capable professionals in all specialties production. Combining a huge capacity for work, expertise and perseverance in the pursuit of certain technical problems, it was highly valued and enjoyed by a rare reputation among apprentices. In the short term rather he amassed quite a fortune, but had no time to use it, died in the hospital for the mentally ill in the year .... On the death of his shop were transferred to his eldest apprentice and fellow scholar G. Wigstrom. "

I would like to freshen up the post.
