Saltykov

[Bonde]

Hey!

The prominent Russian Noble Family Saltykov has had many well known historic persons in Russian history. One branch of this family was on the 30.08.1814 by Emperor and Autocrat ALEXANDER I of all the Russias (1801-1825) created Prince Saltykov. Then there are also 3 Russian Countal families Saltykov. In March 1730 one was created Count Saltykov, on 19.01.1732 the second Count Saltykov was created and finally on 30.10.1790 the third Count Saltykov was created. Do anyone know if any of these Noble families Saltykov still exists? I have a friend that has the surname Saltykov and I wonder if he really belongs to any of these families. If you do not know do you then know where I could get this information? I have very little knowledge about Russian Nobility so I hope anyone can help be. Thank you VERY much in advance!

The Saltykov family will no doubt be listed in one of Jacques Ferrands books of geneolgy...there are 2 exclusively on the Princes of the Russian Empire.
At the time of the revolution..the British Embassy was housed in a portion of the Saltykov Palace..while the family lived in the other part.The Ambassadoes daughter Meriel Buchanan remembered in her memoirs the elderly Princess "who died of want in the revolution".
