The purpose of the article is to publish fragments of a biographical dictionary - biographies of priests with the letter "A". Research methodology: biographical and prosopographical methods are outlined as the main ones in the process of implementing this project. The scientific novelty lies in the publication of the fourth part of the series of biographs (biographical notes) of representatives of the clergy of the Stanislaviv diocese with the letter "A". This publication includes additional materials about the priestly family of the Abrysovskys and biographies of such priests as Androkhovich Andriy (1874–1919). Conclusions: The reconstruction of the biographies of Greek Catholic priests (on the letter "A"), based on a significant source base, proves their active activity not only in the church and religious, but also in the political, public, economic and cultural spheres of the life of the Ukrainian people.
