  There is certainly not a lot of information about Anatoly Rubezov (Анатолий Рубезов).
  
  From the book [Гродзенский С.Я., "Шахматная почта России: турниры, партии, личности, 2015" (Grodzenskiy S. Ya., "Correspondence Chess Russia: Tournaments, Games, Personalities")](https://litgid.com/read/shakhmatnaya_pochta_rossii_turniry_partii_lichnosti/page-6.php):
  
  [![enter image description here](https://i.sstatic.net/vGazT.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/vGazT.png)
  
  It is clear, that Anatoly Rubezov is from [**Sverdlovsk Oblast**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sverdlovsk_Oblast). That is probably the only certain information about them that you don't have in your question.
  
  The next piece of information comes from the book [Подольский А. Б. "В поисках шахматной истины" (Podolskiy A. B. "In the search of the chess truth", 1993)](https://books.google.ca/books/about/%D0%92_%D0%BF%D0%BE%D0%B8%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%85_%D1%88%D0%B0%D1%85%D0%BC%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B9_%D0%B8.html?id=duJRtAEACAAJ&redir_esc=y):
  
  This book, btw, focuses on correspondence games.
  
  [![enter image description here](https://i.sstatic.net/4hAnxVML.png)](https://i.sstatic.net/4hAnxVML.png)
  
  Here, we learn two new things:
  
  * Middle name: Alexandrovich
  * Rank: [Candidate for master of sport](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Sports_Classification_System_of_the_USSR_and_Russia) (кандидат в мастера спорта, abbr: кмс)
  
  Based on this information and some other signs, I have a strong guess that he is a teacher who at some point worked in a school at [Novaya Lyalya](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novaya_Lyalya) ([Mentioned here](https://uongo.ucoz.ru/index/jubilej/0-59) as a receiver of the [Order of honour](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_Honour_(Russia)) for teaching) => but I do not have a way to be 100% certain.

  There are some unrelated-to-chess records in Russian about some Anatoly [Igorevich] Rubezov from Sverdlovsk Region in the Russian court system from 2021, but I am extremely certain **they are a different person** (simply judging by age).
