My husband and I wrote a book FANNY LEAR LOVE AND SCANDAL IN TSARIST RUSSIA. I translated Hattie Blackford's memories into  English, which are the main part of my book. We also went to Uzbekistan, Nice and the National Archives and we got a lot of information about Hattie Blackford and Grand Duke Nicholas Konstantinovich. The best thing of our "adventure" was to visit his palace in Tashkent. In Tashkent we spoke to a scholar who gave us interesting information about the Grand Duke's life in Turkestan.

Research Russian Roots / Re: Von Meck family

« on: October 26, 2016, 08:31:17 AM »

Galina von Meck wrote a second book. The manuscript is in The Brotherton Library in the University Of Leeds in UK.About 10 years ago I went to this Library to see the manuscript. It is heavily edited. However the kind people of the Library gave me the first chapter of the book, typed, and a brief synopsis of the other chapters. They told me that her descendants, who live in UK,  would be very pleased to have the book published, but nobody ever showed any interest in doing so.

If anyone wants copy of what I have, you have just to send me your address. I think this would be a very good book.
