Personally..I think this is one of the most absurd stories about the romanovs i ve ever heard. Sorry.

My Russian teacher told me one version of the story. When Alexandra gave a birth in 1904, she had a daughter again and because they were so very disappointed they exchanged the baby during bathing for a boy. The girl was sent to Denmark and there she was raised for money sent from Russia....

Nonsense of course...

Hi,

I cannot see Nicholas and Alexandra giving up any children of theirs for whatever reason.  This is a ridiculous fantasy & derogatory gossip.  Hateful....
I am really no big fan of either Nicholas or Alexandra;  I find them interesting but not as much as other Romanovs.  But, Alexandra, for all her faults, was a devoted wife and mother and would never have abandoned a child of her own, let alone Nicky's.  And, Nicholas would certainly not have dumped an innocent child, especially his own.

My gosh, that was the most absurd story about the Romanovs I've ever heard. Alexei is not the son of Nicolas and Alexandra...  :o How can people tell stories like this... can't they just let the Romanov family to rest in peace?!

Probably new story for me, but as what others said, Alix could never forgive herself if she didn't take responsibility with a child.

She's been a very strict mother to OTMA. ohow. Have you read the wikipedia article about Olga Nikolaevna? It says there that when the IF visited Romania, Queen Marie talked to the girls. They talk so carefree-lly but when Alix came, they became so careful of what to say. I think Alix wants her daughters to speak more like princesses (and it always will be like that, my opinion).

According to me the history of Suzanna de Graff is is it the most absurd of all the histories of the claimants! Even the history of Eugenia Smith is more believable than the history of Suzanna! This is stuff from crazy person... 
But did Ann Anderson believe in the history of this woman?

Yes, according to the Blair Lovell book Anna Anderson met this woman and called her sister.

Hi,

Well, maybe she was Anna Anderson's sister;  but she wasn't Anastasia's!!!

Larry  - LOL

Wouldn't that be terrific!  If Suzanne was Anna sister, then we could get DNA from that branch and find out who AA really was!

A few posts before, posters were asking to see photos of Suzanne.  The one I posted above is the only one I have, I think.  I bought JB Lovell's book for $1 at my local library's "white elephant" sale, just to have it.

I haven't even read it and I think I got it about 2 years ago.

I also have Kurth's book and the Quest for Anastasia by Klier and his wife Mingay, just because they are a part of the story and I felt they needed to be in my collection.

You mean that it could be real? ... ... And why is that? ??? As it has been said before, N&A would never give away a child of theirs, and with knowing how they loved their children, for me this story is locked. Although I'm not sure I understood you right...
