Sergei's ancestry was variously reported as Swedish or Swiss (but more recent research has shown that he was of Livonian extraction),Michael Hagemeister, "Wer war Sergej Nilus?" Ostkirchliche Studien 40 (1991), 49-63. and Gregor Schwartz-Bostunitsch has claimed that the painter Pyotr Nilus was related to Sergei Nilus.
