The article outlines the continuity of the family schools of epic storytellers in the North; the featured one is the Kryukov dynasty from the Winter Coast of the White Sea. The epic repertoire of an individual storyteller from the three generations of the Kryukov family is analyzed in the context of local and general Russian traditions. Possible ties of succession and differences between them are established. The author suggests that it is too early to postulate the existence of the family schools in Zimnyaya Zolotitsa with the same certainty as in the case of the Chuprovs on the Pizhma.
