Looks correct to me!
Nice to have them all gathered together.

For whom could she mourning in 1913?
Here's the one of Anastasia dressed as a boy. I found it on Pinterest, pinned from the OTMA Palace Tumblr blog.
Here's the link:

QuoteIf you look closely at some of the tennis pictures, you'll see Anastasia's wearing sandals rather than tennis shoes. There's a dark pair that's very easy to spot -- once you see them, you'll wonder why you never noticed before -- and a light pair that's pretty hard to see against her white stockings. You have to look for the buckles. If the sandals are any indication, the problem doesn't seem to have developed until around 1913-14.
I know which sandals you're talking about, but I never considered the fact Anastasia might have been wearing them to accommodate her foot deformity. Is that what you were getting at?
Is it a prurient interest in true crime that fuels the lingering interest in the Romanovs? After all, they've been dead almost a century.
I've noticed this before but have never mentioned it until now
The GDs had HUGE feet!
Good call Tim. Bunions to be exact. Never heard about her needing a special shoe but I guess it's possible.
