Yes, while Ivan VI was in Kholmogory, he was under the care of a custodian. After being deposed as a child in 1741, he was imprisoned and later moved to Kholmogory, where he lived in relative isolation. His primary caretaker during this period was a soldier named Alexei Shchekalov, who was responsible for his supervision. Ivan was kept in secrecy and was not allowed to have contact with his family or the outside world. Despite the circumstances, he was treated relatively well compared to other political prisoners of the time.
