Arvid Adolf Etholén
Arvid Adolf Etholén, or Adolf Karlovich Etolin ((ロシア語: Адольф Карлович Этолин)) (January 9, 1799 Helsinki - March 29, 1876 Elimäki) was a naval officer, explorer and administrator in the Russian Empire who was employed by the Russian-American Company. He was a Swedish-speaking Finn who was born in Helsinki, Finland. Etholén first reached Sitka (then ''Novoarkhangelsk'') in Russian America in the service of the Russian-American Company in 1818, rising to Chief Manager of the Company 1840-1845 (Chief Manager was a position sometimes referred to, though incorrectly, as Governor).
==Career==
Etolin traveled from Russia to America with Vasily Golovnin on the ''Kamchatka'' in 1817, and he is mentioned in Kiril Timofeevich Khlĕbnikov's ''Baranov, Chief Manager of the Russian Colonies in America'' (1835), with the following comment on Baranov’s part: “If only the Main Office could have sent me men like yourselves earlier, then I would very likely have had more success, and I would have found it pleasant to pass the time in their company!”.〔''Zhizneopisanie Aleksandra Andreevicha Baranova, Glavnago Pravitelia Rossiĭskih Koloniĭ v Amerikĕ'', Kiril Timofeevich Khlĕbnikov: v Morskoĭ Tipografii, Sanktpeterburg, 1835. (English: ''Baranov, Chief Manager of the Russian Colonies in America'', translated by Colin Bearne, edited by Richard Pierce, the Limestone Press, Kingston, Ontario, 1973).〕
Etolin served from 1818 to 1825 as a ship master. He was part of a group that surveyed the Bering Sea in 1822 to 1824. He was the adjutant for the Chief Manager ("Governor") of Russian America in 1834, and became Chief Manager himself from 1840 to 1845. He was a member of the board of the Russian-American Company in Saint Petersburg, Russia from 1847 to 1859. Etolin died at his estate in Elimäki, Finland.
