No, he is not well known at all. Why would he be? He led a White army that only reluctantly recognized Estonian independence because of pressure from the Entente. We pretty much only co-operated with that army because of Entente pressure ourselves. After their defeat at Petrograd, they were disarmed and interned. From an Estonian perspective, the Whites were at least as bad as the Reds, if not worse.
Who?
