Neronovych was born in Pyriatyn, in the Poltava Governorate of the Russian Empire.

The next day after the session of the congress elapsed the local Bolshevik's faction raised a revolt in Kiev similar to that of Petrograd.

On 25 March 1918 he was executed by the Ukrainian military forces as the member of the Soviet government in the town of Velyki Sorochyntsi, near Poltava.

Even though his contributions do not seem to be impressive he left a non-forgettable legacy behind him as several streets of different cities in Ukraine were renamed in his name after the Civil war period: Kiev, Kamyanets-Podilsky, Hadiach among the few.

The city of Velyki Sorochyntsi, the birthplace of Nikolai Gogol, was called Neronovychi in 1925–1931.
