Who was Semen Rodzianko?

The article says "It was named after Semen Rodzianko" - with no source, no link, and no description of who Rodzianko was or why he might be important enough for someone to name a town after him. Who was he? The Encyclopedia of Ukraine: Volume IV lists a late-18th century poet of that name, a scion of a noble Cossack military family. Was that him? Why would a town get its name from this short-lived poet? And when was it so named (as the article says the town was founded two centuries prior to his life. If it isn't that Semen Rodzianko, who was it? -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 17:09, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
