Kandinsky Family Tree


How Was Created the Kandinsky Family Tree

  First of all, I would like to tell where does the basic information of the Tree composition come from. The merit of the Tree creation is of a famous Russian genealogist who composed genealogical trees for several famous families, Mr. Vladimir Baraev. Among others, he made the family trees of the Bestuzhevs, the Sabashnikovs and the Kandinskys. The story of these (and some others) families was published in Mr. Baraev's book: «The Tree: The Decembrists and the Kandinskys Family» (Vladimir Baraev. Drevo: Dekabristy i semeistvo Kandinskikh. - Moscow,Politizdat Publisher, 1991. 270 p. with pictures. ISBN 5-250-01150-0). Unfortunately I never met the author of this book, I tried to find him while preparing the site, but I failed. If somebody who knows Mr. Baraev comes to this web site, please be so kind to contact me.

The second stimulating motive of the site creation, was my visit to the site «All Russia Family Tree». But unfortunately there were nobody named Kandinsky there at that moment, so I decided to create my own web page with my family's genealogy. I did it in the late 1999 - early 2000 the evenings after coming back home from job.

So, the basis of the site is the genealogy created by Mr. Baraev and published in the above named book. I made only a few changes regarding my branch of the tree and I corrected several small mistakes.
