The Imperial Family / Memoirs

« on: July 08, 2014, 07:14:07 AM »

A topic for memoirs or autobiographies written by members of the IF or people who knew them (Like Pierre Gilliard, Anna Vyrubova etc).

I remember reading somewhere on this forum that Vera Konstantinovna (KR's daughter) had written her memoirs, and that they were primarily about her family. Does anyone know what it was called?

Having Fun! / Friends Reunited

« on: June 21, 2011, 05:04:57 AM »

Ok so I haven't been online for a long time because my computer broke - which was partly my fault due to playing Pacman all day, but that's irrelevant - anyway I've kind of realized that my friends on here have either A) forgotten about me or B) forgotten about the site. So, anyone who's in the same situation as me can use this page to try and get back in touch with lost friends So, if Lady Nikolaievna, Tasia and Jarian still want to be my friends, can they please either leave a message on this topic or send me a message or whatever. Thanks XD

Maria Nicholaievna / Favourite Maria pictures

« on: June 15, 2010, 10:05:12 AM »

There is a thread like this on the Olga and Anastasia boards, so why not for Maria too? And Tatiana? My favourite pictures of Maria:

- With Olga, Anastasia and Anna Vyrubova

- 1910 formal portrait

- Maria Nikolaevna, triumphant in her cause

- Aboard the Standart, clearly beyond caring

- DON'T JUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

- Seemingly confuzzled

- In the middle, with the most cherubic face EVER!

- So sweet!

- A picture of solitary innocence

- Proud to be one of OTM

- Me and my kokoshnik!

- All alone again, on the road again!

- Being huggled by Olga

- With the girls...

- I wish I had a hammock like that

- This was caught on film! June 1915

- Looking very troubled with Tatiana and Anastasia

- Giving a dirty look to whoever or whatever is 'over there'

- Looking peaceful and beautiful.

Having Fun! / Russian nicknames

« on: June 15, 2010, 08:52:57 AM »

Please post the nicknames for your Russian name (I think there is a thread on that somewhere...I have posted on it) here. Does anyone know of any Russian nicknames for the name Emilia? Was there a Grand Duchess called Emilia?

Having Fun! / Photo sessions

« on: April 28, 2010, 10:33:31 AM »

Hi, I think it would be good to have a topic that focuses entirely upon photo sessions, i.e., instead of just posting one photo, try and post all that you have of that session. I have some questions to start off the thread...

Q1. Are there any more pictures from this session?:





Q2. Can someone give me the rest of the session that these photos came from??:







Q3. Does anyone have the full 1906 St.Petersburg session???:

(from theRomanovfamilysite.webs.com)



etc etc

Having Fun! / OTMAX?

« on: April 21, 2010, 10:48:34 AM »

Hi, I was just wondering what Nicky and Alix would have called another daughter of theirs. Would she have been named Xenia, after Nicholas' other sister? Or maybe Victoria after Queen Victoria of England?

Having Fun! / Ha! Ha! Ha! They've got it sooooo wrong!

« on: March 23, 2010, 08:10:30 AM »

Hi folks! Just wanted to show you this (It's so funny!), on a usually reliable website. See the picture of the Romanov family? It's one of the tercentenary ones right? Well, hover your mouse over -In turn- Olga, Tatiana and Maria Nikolaevna...They're ALL mislabeled! Plus, it says that Olga died when she was 23! Not 22! It is so laughable!

Having Fun! / Pronounciation

« on: February 27, 2010, 07:48:45 AM »

Excuse me, I hope you don't think I'm being impertinent but, I've always wondered, how do you pronounce 'Velikye Knyaz'?

« on: February 15, 2010, 09:19:51 AM »

What is Anastasia doing in this picture? It is very puzzling, maybe she's performing some bizarre ritual?

I have been posting on the 'Tatiana Nicholaievna' thread, and the 'main talent' topic was one that I posted on, so does anyone know what Anastasia Nikolaevna's 'Main Talent' was???
