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.
