why so unfriendly towards Marlene? Her first article was about Princess Paley and her second husband Grand Duke Paul and teir off-spring. There was actually no need to change it. Dynastically only her Paley offspring are of interest, but not the children from ehr first marriage. That she follows other boards is no surprise. She follows discussions and looks like all historians or other board followers for new information. That is what good historians do. Ans she is a superb one. None needs to point anything out to Marlene. If you want to point anything out to her, do it yourself. There is an email address in her excellent blog. The ban - big mistake as one banned the greatest expert we have here. That she has opinion and fights for it. I admire her for it, even tough I often disagree. But it is fruitful - always. But it seems some poeple just can not take it. But remember Noam Chomsky's word: If we do not believe in freedom of expression for people we dispise, we do not believe in it at all. --Previous Message-- : : It only shows that Marlene Eilers Koenig : reads daily this very message board (ERMB) : which she was banned from some month or so : ago. : : Obviously it did not take more than some : four hours to get through to her.... : : And this is a good hint: if someone wants to : give some signal to Koenig, here in this : board it has a high likelihood to get read : by her. : Perhaps even surer if the title of the : thread indicates something explicitly : M.E.Koenig.... : : : : --Previous Message-- : Strange? : : Olga's surviving son is now mentioned on : Marlene's Blog. : : Allan Raymond : : : --Previous Message-- : : : In her recent blog about the death of Olga, : princess Paley, Ms Koenig mentions that she : was survived by her four daughters. : However, her surviving son, the elder son, : Aleksanteri von Pistohlkors, fails to get : that mention from said Koenig. : : : : http://genealogics.org/getperson.php?personID=I00308943&tree=LEO : Aleksanteri von Pistohlkors -formerly an : adjutant of the Governor-General of Finland : in Helsinki- lived a few decades after the : revolution and after the death his mother, : and it's actually somewhat attested that he : had activities in emigrant circles in Paris. : : I gather he deceased only in 1940s. : : He is not mentioned at all in Koenig's blog: : : : : http://royalmusingsblogspotcom.blogspot.com/2009/11/princess-paley-dead-at-63.html : : Aleksanteri von Pistohlkors' young daughters : travelled by their step-grandfather grD : Paul's private train when fleeing the : revolution.... : Princess Olga did that (= made use of her : husband's privileges and train) in benefit : of her granddaughters. : : One of those little girls became Countess : Pahlen in Finland and another baroness Ramel : in Sweden. : : : : : : :
