Are there any good books about the children of Grand Duke Alexander and Grand Duchess Xenia? Especially Feodor? I'm reading "The Russian Court at Sea" by Frances Welch and there are quite a few things there, but they're mostly about Dmitri and Vassily, there's not much more information about the others. I've also heard about "Mémoires d'Exil", but my French is a little rusty. :p

Francis Mathew, Prince Andrei's grandson, will apparently be the star of the Ukrainian version of "The Bachelor"!

He is actually more Scottish in looks and temperment than Russian. Good opportunity for the Ukrainian girls to mix their blood with royalty.

If anyone is interested, we obtained four letters written by Marie Feodorovna to her grandson Prince Nikita in 1920-21.  The originals and English translations are posted here on the main website: http://alexanderpalace.org/palace/MarieFedorovnalettersNikita.html.  At the same time, we also got two Imperial Porcelain plates from the Michael Alexandrovich service at Ai Todor and packed by Xenia and MF as part of their luggage on the Marlborough  (Family history relates MF had to choose between a crate of silver and a crate of pans, dishes and table linens and declared "We shall not impose upon Our Sister and her house to provide for Our basic necessities" and insisted the silver be left and the household items loaded on board.)
