Russian Noble Families / Biron descendants
« on: October 06, 2018, 03:22:21 AM »
Hello,
I wanted to know more about some Biron of Kurland descendants.
In my country, Serbia, there is a guy whose name is Konstantin von Biron, with the title of Baron, as he says. He has a brother, whose name is Ladislav von Biron.
They claim that they have descended from the brother of Duke Ernst Johann Biron von Kurland(1690-1772). He had two brothers, but in genealogy, I could not find their descendants. In his story, given to the newspapers, his great-grandfather came to Belgrade from Kiev in Ukraine after the revolution. He also says that his family belongs to the 6th book of nobility in Russia(I am not familiar with Russian nobility books), where it is stated that they have the right to hereditary title and coat of arms.
His connection was confirmed by mr. Dragomir Acovic, member of the Crown Council of Serbia and President of the Serbian Society for Heraldry, so I assume the story is not fake.
I just wanted to ask if anyone would have any insight to the genealogy of this baronial line of the Biron family who lived in Russia or access to this 6th book of Russian nobility where they say their name is written.
Thank you,
Marc
