and Ukrainian markets. Lermontova never married but she had strong ties with her goddaughter. After the October Revolution of 1917, there was an attempt to dispossess Lermontova of her estate, but A.B. Lunacharskii, the Commissar of Education, intervened, and she was left in peace. She died in 1919. Lermontova’s estate was burnt to ashes soon after her death, as were many successful Russian Manors during and after the revolution. Vasili (Basil) Nikolaevich Lermontov (1801-1862), (Ostrozhnikov’s Lermontov) Colonel, Court Councillor, retired in 1851. He had a hereditary Manor Ivanovskoe and bought another one nearby in Chukhloma. He was a very good proprietor and his houses looked like small capital buildings with columns, oak floors, antique furniture, a huge library and a gallery with more than 80 paintings. The surrounding lands were decorated with gardens, ponds and greenhouses. Vasili Lermontov was married to a niece of the famous General Sipyagin who was Adjunct General to the hero of Borodino, General Mikhail Barclay de Tolly who was of Scottish descent. They had three children. Two died in infancy but the third Gennady, survived. Gennady Vasilievich Lermontov (1831-1900) (Illus. 46) had an excellent education and served as an Actual State Councillor. He had progressive points of view for the Russian economy and was rewarded for his activities. Gennady Lermontov married his cousin Maria Dmitrievna Lermontov (1832-1901) (Illus. 46), a daughter of Major General Dmitri Nikolaevich Lermontov (1802-1945) who was a younger brother of Gennady’s father. The marriage between cousins was prohibited by the Russian Orthodox Church so Maria Lermontov took a false surname for the marriage ceremony. However Gennady and Maria Lermontov had officially to correct their deception when their son Gennady Gennadievich Lermontov (1865-1908) became a Doctor of Laws and chose a diplomatic career. It was done by a special petition to the Imperator of Russia. Gennady Gennadievich Lermontov (1865-1908) (Illus. 46) graduated from St. Petersburg University in 1888. He then served as a First Secretary at the Imperial Russian Embassy in Rome and as a Kamer-Junker of the Highest Court Yard (Kamer-Junker (cf. German Kammerjunker) a courtier title). He was married to the Duchess (Knyaginya) Varvara Nikolaevna Trubetskaya (1870- 1933) (Illus. 46). They both were fond of painting and were members of the “Society of the Encouragement of the Russian Painters” in Rome. They had three children: Nikolai (1901-1965), Peter 1902-1950) and Sofia 1904-1957). Gennady Gennadievich Lermontov died in Rome and is buried in the Lermontov family grave at the prestigious Donskoy Noble cemetery in Moscow (Illus. 46). After her husband’s death, Varvara Nikolaevna Trubetskaya-Lermontova lived in Lille, France. She was instrumental in helping many Russian immigrants and organized a dormitory at the Russian Orthodox Church for students. She kept close ties with her Trubetskoi relatives who were also immigrants in France, then later in the USA . Nikolai Gennadievich Lermontov (1901-1965) was born in the Manor Menshovo (near Moscow) which was owned by his grandparents, the Duke and Duchess Trubetskoi. In 1917-1918 Nikolai Lermontov joined the White movement. In 1918 he and his two cousins, Duke Vladimir and Duke Alexander Trubetskoi, failed in an attempt to release the Russian Imperial family from their captivity by the Bolshevics. They later all immigrated to France. Nikolai Lermontov lived in Paris during 1948-1950, he then returned to Russia where he was forgiven by the Soviet government. He worked in the Kirov region about 500 ml to the north-east of Moscow. He died in Russia and is buried in the Lermontov family grave in Donskoy Cemetery, Moscow (Illus. 46). In 1924 Nikolai married Natalie Saburova in Paris and they had three children: Anna, Alexander and Gennady who were all born in France. - 165 - - 166 -
Peter Gennadievich Lermontov (1902-1950) immigrated to France and married Irina, a sister of Natilie Saburova his brother Nikolai’s wife. They lived in Paris. Sofia Gennadievna Lermontova (1904-1957) also immigrated to France and lived in Paris. She was married twice. Her second husband was George Konstantinovich Duke Shakhovskoi (1895-1977). Nikolai Lermontov’s son Alexander Nikolaevich Lermontov (Illus. 46) was born in 1927 in Paris. He became a very highly regarded professional of Pedagogical Science, publishing several books. He worked in the USA for some time but now lives in Paris. Alexander Nikolaevich Lermontov is an active member of the association “Lermontov Heritage”; he is a vice Chairman of this association in France. Alexander Lermontov, through his grandmother Varvara Lermontov nee Duchess Trubetskaya, is a relative of the famous Russian actor Peter Glebov and the brilliant Russian producer and actor Nikita Mikhalkov. He is particularly remembered for his 1992 Oscar-winning anti-Stalinist drama “Burnt by the Sun” made in 1992. - 167 - - 168 -
