Ivan Ryumin
Ivan Ryumin was a Cossack clerk in the Kamchatka Chancellery. In 1766 he lost his post for failing to provide information to a governmental inquiry.
Ryumin joined the party which seized control of Bolsheretsk on 18 April 1771 and then fled Kamchatka under the leadership of the Hungarian adventurer Maurice Benyovszky on 12 May, sailing on the galiot St. Peter to the port of Macao in China. He remained with the survivors on their onward voyage to France.
He wrote an account of the voyage from Kamchatka to Macao which is now held in the Siberian Archive in St. Petersburg. He subsequently returned to Siberia, settling in Tobolsk.
