I have found that they are cousins of Anna Vyrubova, children of Nadežda Taneieva born 1862 and Dmitry Adol'fovich Eichler born 1854 , state councilor . You know the names of the two sons and some news about their lives ? thanks

Tatiana Nicholaievna / Re: GD Tatiana's Illness in 1913

« on: May 19, 2015, 12:29:48 PM »

I will post here my question, about the illness of Tatiana , you are aware of diaries or writings of Alexandra about the daughter's illness ? or of other family members ? I read in the forum, from the diary of olga the body temperature of those days (I'll get the book of Helen Azar )  while Nicola writes only “ Tatiana has a fever”
I was interested in the familiar appearance and private of the early days of the illness until early March.   Thanks

I have seen in the last year, for sale online, many letters written by GD Olga in the years '30. Curious because it tells his daily life and the events of his family.

I am sure you have already seen this photo in the forum, but I can not find her for the identification. Maybe it's of the family Vorontsov . Thanks

I've looked through the lists of maid-of-honors of 1890-1917 period and not found any Alexandra Knyazhevitch.

  Thanks for for the search.  I'm sorry not identify the woman, but I have no other information
