Russian Noble Families / Golovachev

« on: February 14, 2024, 07:19:44 AM »

The Golovachev family was an old Russian noble family but they did not have a coat of arms. It seems they did not only live in Saint Petersburg but also in Tver region of Russia. I have researched back to Zakhar Alexeievich Golovachev who lived from 1782 to 1837. I have not found his manor or the area where he lived. I am new to Russian provinisial nobility. Do you know how to research that? What I have understood is that there should exist genealogical books for that kind of research. The Golovachev seems to be in the VI volume of Genealogical books of Tver province. What book is this? I have no idea what I am searching for.

Other Palaces / Galitzino

Where was Galitzino located? It was located 100 versts from Saint Petersburg. It might thus have been somewhere in modern day Leningrad oblast. I do not find that place on a map of today. Do anyone here now this location?

Imperial Succession and the Throne / Bagration-Moukhransky

« on: March 06, 2020, 05:17:14 PM »

Her Highness Princess Tatiana Constantinovna of Russia was married morganatically in her first marriage at Pavlovsk Palace in southern Saint Petersburg 24 August 1911. She married with the Russian noble Prince Constantine Alexandrovitch Bagration-Moukhransky. She continued to be a member of the Russian Imperial Family after this wedding. He was not a member of the Imperial Family of Russia. Children born out of this marriage were not in line of succession to the Imperial House of Russia. My question now is therefore why the marriage between His Imperial Highness Grand Duke Vladimir Kirillovitch of Russia and Princess Leonida Bagration-Moukhransky would be equal in Lausanne 13 August 1948 so almost 37 years later? Would this not mean similarily that the child born out of this marriage Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna of Russia would not be in line of succession to the Imperial House of Russia? What makes Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna of Russia position legit?

Imperial Succession and the Throne / Re: How likely is Russia to become a monarchy again?

The sovereign Imperial House of Russia is sadly de iure extinct. Grand Duchess Maria of Russia has the strongest support for her claim out of the three present pretenders to the Russian throne. I do think we cannot see a restoration of monarchy in Russia in the near future but if the Russian people want to return back to monarchy Grand Duchess Maria of Russia would as it seems at the moment be ready and willing to take up that defunct Imperial throne.

Russian Noble Families / Re: Tables of Russian Nobility

I asume that I mean that 6 sections of nobility. This as in Almanach de Gotha 2012 is mentioned in Volume I on page 336 that "According to the Tables of Russian Nobility (Part V), both Maria Vladimirovna and Nicholas Romanovitch ... are the issue of mothers of equal rank and previously by dynasts of equal rank".

Imperial Succession and the Throne / Prince Andrew Romanov

« on: October 31, 2018, 05:47:19 AM »

The sovereign imperial house of Russia is extinct. This as there are no living persons today born from parents of equal birth. At the same time Prince Andrew Romanov is a claimant to the headship of the House of Romanov. What do you think about that? He is not even the President of the Romanov Family Association. That position is instead held by Princess Olga Romanoff. I see his claim to be very weak. He is not actively work to pretend the Russian throne. To a large extent because of his very high age of 95 years.
