--- "A Numerous and Fashionable Audience: The Story of Elsie Swinton" by David Greer, Thames Publishing, 1997:
Page 15: At Peterhof there lived another of Elsie's friends, Elizabeth Plaoutine, known as Lily. The Plaoutine family was of Scottish origin and the name had originally been Plowden. In the time of Peter the Great many Scots families had settled in Russia and some had been elevated to the nobility. Lily's father, Lieutenant-General Sergey Nikolaevitch Plaoutine, had a post at the imperial court. Her mother was an English-woman whose maiden name had been Pringle. Lily and Elsie were apparently distantly related, for Lily claimed her friend as her fifth half cousin. Lily would drive over from Peterhof in a low carriage with a pair of ponies in Hungarian harness, with bunches of feathers on their heads. She, Elsie, Eleanore, Maria, and a few others had their own secret society of 'Bondfriends'.

Page 51: . . . on the journey they met Elsie's girlhood friend from St. Petersburg days, Lily Plaoutine. Elsie and Lily had not seen one another for at least six years, and in the meantime they had both married and had had two children. Lily, who was now a Lady-in-Waiting at the Russian court, was with her husband, Prince Sergey Sherbatov, and they all completed the journey to Dresden together.

The village "Transfiguration", a manor house on the hill, garden, down to the river, a mill - a picture I have such a family.
Mom always said, "Transfiguration" - our estate. However, I did not specify exactly whose it: Raczynski, Deryuzhinsky, Kakhovskaya whether Shcherbatov ...
For all of them are close relatives. The brother of my great-grandfather Alexander Raczynski (1826-1877), writer, historian, diplomat, ending his diplomatic service he settled in the family estate in the village of Mitino, selling the rest of their possessions for the wife and daughter of his studies, to send his son to the military service, while continuing to host Bulgarians students.

In Smolensk, my family members were shot: my cousin Irina is 17 years old, my cousin Dmitry is 14 years old, my uncle Sergey Borisovich Shcherbatov with his wife Elizaveta, nee Plautina, aunt, Princess Khovanskaya. Her line after this "purge" ceased. I wrote down all the coordinates, but I did not immediately tell anyone. I arrived the next day alone, opened the first box, there were about 20 tons of documents. I did not get the Shcherbatov case, but it was supposed to be there. I doubt that I could find him alone. But here, one might say, was lucky: Alexander von Engelhardt helped me. From him I learned the history of the archive and details of the shooting of my family.

.. . The Cheka began to operate from the end of 1917. The former gendarmes and policemen, nobles, merchants and priests, cadets, schoolboys, students were exterminated. Shot not only adults but also children. "The Shcherbatov case" was found in documents for 1921: arrest, interrogation, sentence to be shot. Uncle's wife, who was very fond of Russia, was a half-English woman, and the reason for the arrest with the wording "English spies" was the family's affection for the English language. Something I was enchanted by Engelhardt, who himself interrogated my relatives: "Irina's cousin, she seemed to be afraid of nothing. She said: "I hate you. You are traitors to my homeland. " She was shot the next morning. There were also two Chekist brothers, Pavel and Grigory Neubergi, who at that time were twenty and twenty-one years old, then they changed their surname to Newberg. These two, after the Civil War, worked in Berlin with Rosengolz at the USSR Ministry of Trade. Both fled in the 28-29 years from Berlin to the West, capturing quite a lot of money. Paul married Olga Zhigalova, also from Smolensk, a well-known woman in America, who wrote an interesting book about her Smolensk life. Paul died in the United States. Little detail: my sister Elena accidentally met Olga in Switzerland, and they maintained close friendly relations for a long time, until I told Elena that Olga Zhigalova's husband had interrogated our sister Irina. The rupture somewhat spoiled the social status of Mrs. Zhigalova. Nevertheless, their son became a lawyer, married the daughter of the American millionaire Vanderbild.

And I remember Irina. Last time we met in Petersburg, she was then 15-16 years old, I was 6 or 7. Very beautiful and affectionate, always took me in my arms and kissed her head. I had such a special feeling for her. Uncle Sergey, a well-known artist, loved his estate near Smolensk, not far from the Goat Hills, and did not want to leave it. He gave them out as "British intelligence officers" Alexander Engelhardt. In the Goat Hills, with the shooting of my relatives, the GPU cemetery began, where five thousand Polish officers were destroyed many years later.

["The Goat Mountains" refers to Kozy Gory, a hamlet in the Smolensk area, close to Katyn.This was the site of the infamous massacre of Polish officers in WWII. GPU (Gosudarstvennoye Politicheskoye Upravlenie - State Political Directorate) was the official designation of the Cheka 1922 - 1923. Apparantly some or all of the Katyn Forest victims were buried in Kozy Gory.]

. . . He could not know that part of my family was left under Stalin's government, but I did not want to go into details. The fact is that two sisters from the Shcherbatov family who were shot, Tatyana and Elizabeth, were able to escape. Tatiana went to Petrograd. She was helped by the friends of her grandfather Shcherbatov's sister, the famous countess Uvarova, an archaeologist who had high prestige in Russia. The countess' husband, who was born Shcherbatova, Earl Uvarov was also a well-known archeologist, a specialist in Scythian burials. Many burial mounds were found by this couple. Uvarov by this time died, the countess went to Yugoslavia. Tatyana in Petrograd was helped by good acquaintances of the Uvarovs, just kind people. Tatiana painted beautifully, they sent her to Georgia, to Tiflis. She graduated there school and became a famous painter-restorer. She sketched the unique Georgian frescoes that adorned the Orthodox churches, which were preserved in the mountains from the 8th to the 9th centuries until the arrival of the Arabs. Now there's Muslim Chechnya. I have a magazine "Paris Match", dedicated to her work and life stories. She is considered the only expert in Georgian frescoes in Russia. Tatyana, undoubtedly, has done a tremendous historical work. Most of the drawings were in the Tiflis Museum, and many died in 1990-91 during a fire, during the riots in Georgia during the partition of the USSR. After that, in 92-93 she returned to Moscow, bought a house in the Moscow suburbs, and lives there. I saw her only once in 91, when I came to Moscow. Tatiana specially arrived for a meeting. Very sweet and intelligent, she did not want to talk about Smolensk: "We will not talk about this. I suffered so much. " Financially, she was helped from France, where money was left for her. My aunts - Mary and Anyuta (Golitsyna), born Shcherbatov, died. But before the revolution, Grandma Shcherbatova, the father's mother, had one of the famous diadems of Empress Josephine, the wife of Napoleon Bonaparte. In 1914, the diadem, after the restoration, was sold. Two sisters inherited money. Anyuta invested some money in a plot of land in the south of France, near Cannes. This property is actually owned by Tatiana and Elizabeth. I saw Elizabeth only in my childhood, at the age of six. I know that she, after parting with Tatiana, fled to Siberia and was teaching English in Krasnoyarsk, died there, and very early. Tatyana now should be about 96 years old. She was married to Kovalevsky, who was a student of the St. Petersburg Lyceum in the early 1930s. He was shot in a few years. From this marriage there was a daughter and a son. Daughter, known in Moscow as a professor of history. I saw her in Belgium when she came to visit my sisters, Olga and Anna, who, basically, and kept in touch with her. She seemed to me an interesting interlocutor, a competent historian, an intelligent, but somewhat exalted woman. And with her son, a pretty nice boy, but similar to a long-haired hippie, I could not find a common language. He is now about 40 years old, probably changed, turning into an elegant young man. Maybe I took a bit of a preoccupation with him? He was not an angel in his childhood. Recently, analyzing old papers, I found my letter, sent from Constantinople "dear aunt Anyuta." I was very surprised by my intelligence. I quote this funny document. On the other hand, it is clear from the written, what kind of sympathetic, kind and always ready to help was my father's sister. At all, Aunt Mary was no different from her in character. Therefore, my family members were calm for Tatiana and Elizabeth, confident that they are in a good financial situation.

Mortally wounded at the retreat at Odessa.

--- Translated from: http://tsarselo.ru/yenciklopedija-carskogo-sela/istorija-carskogo-sela-v-licah/plautiny.html
Mikhail Nikolaevich Plautin was born in 1895 in Tsarskoye Selo. Misha was interested in birds since childhood. From a young age, he began to collect a collection of bird eggs. A huge influence on the boy had his two grandfathers, passionately carried away by natural science. As a child, Misha and his brothers spent the winter in Tsarskoe Selo, and the summer in Tesseli in the Crimea. His mothers also belonged to the estates Sadovka and Kamenka in the Novokhopersky district of the Voronezh province. Perhaps Misha was there.

In 1913, Mikhail entered the St. Petersburg Institute of Engineers of Communications of Emperor Alexander I. The following year the Great War began, which grew into the Civil War. He was not called to the front after the beginning of the war, because as a student he received a reprieve from the draft. When the Ornithological Herald published his proposal for the exchange of eggs in 1915, Mikhail Nikolayevich was only 20 years old. The noble lineage of the Plautins and the immediate service in the Tsar's entourage left no choice. The question "for whom to fight in the Civil" did not stand.

The widow Maria Mikhailovna, along with her sons, left the Motherland through Odessa in 1920. As is now known, this was one of the heaviest and poorly organized and prepared evacuations of the White armies. In the end, only one in three of the total number of applicants was able to be evacuated. Mikhail Nikolaevich Plautin was mortally wounded in 1920 when Odessa left, and remained forever in his native land. He was only 25 years old! The rest of the family could successfully emigrate. The fate of the ornithological collection of Mikhail Nikolayevich Plautin remains unknown.

I began to search for Aleksey Shcherbatov's book "The Right to the Past21"
believing that in it I will find the correct and complete history of the Sergei family
Borisovich Shcherbatov. Being in Canada, it was not easy. After
long searches, in which I met good people, I still
they sent a book from Moscow. At the same time I established a connection with my second wife
Alexey Shcherbatova - Larissa Krivoruchkina-Shcherbatova, her friend in
Moscow, Raisa Urazovaya. Larissa did not believe in this transformation of Prince Dmitry
in Shcherbakova V.K. After reading the above-mentioned book, "The Right to the Past," I am also in it
He did not find a related story about the fate of the family of Sergei Borisovich Shcherbatov.
To convince you, my reader, I will have to do a few below
scattered excerpts from this book.

Excerpts from the book "The Right to the Past":
". . . . Children of Sergei Shcherbatov older
me: Boris - at thirteen, already
graduated from the Lyceum, Dmitry - ten
(inaccuracy! -for seven years, remark
my, E.L).
Who would have guessed then,
that the boys Shcherbatov
did not it take long to live?
Dmitry together with others
relatives were shot by security officers
at the very beginning of 1921 under
Smolensk. Boris in 1918
invited as an interpreter for
work with the British in the North
the army of General Miller. English
intervention in the region of Arkhangelsk
ended before the defeat of this
army red. English, little
interested in helping Russia,
in fact betrayed white comrades-in-arms:
fled in 1920, having had time to take out
huge reserves of forest. Boris remained with
colleagues and fell into the number of several hundred young officers and cadets,
which Chekist Mikhail Tsiderbaum-Kedrov, a mentally ill person,
recently released from a madhouse, ordered to put on a barge
and blew it up in the White Sea. All, of course, perished. At a meeting with Kerensky, among
I asked him this one too: "What is the purpose of the decree
The Provisional Government released criminals and
Are you crazy? ". Alexander Fedorovich, as usual, covered himself with philosophical
a discussion of freedom for all. The news of Boris's death we received already in
Yalta. And at that moment I regretted that I had so little to do with him. He was
a real young gentleman, very elegant, intelligent, sweet. " (pages
21-22 of the book, EL).

Family notes say that Elizabeth died of starvation during WWII, either in 1942 or 1943. She was married, but her husband had died in 1937.

Notes:

Family notes say that she married, lived some years with her youngest sister, and died in the 1980s.

Notes:

Arrested (with her mother, brother, sisters and aunt) at her home in Mitino on 14 May 1921. Shot the following morning on charges of belonging to a "criminal counter-revolutionary organization."

--- Memories of Irina by her cousin, Prince Alexei Scherbatov:
These were written in his book (translated "The Right to the Past", pages 193-5) and have been published online in a number of articles. This is an online translation of the Russian and is quite literal. As with all memoirs dealing with the Russian Revolution, Prince Alexei knew only what he heard about this event. Consequently, some of these facts are not correct or disagree with other writings --- but in all memories and tellings there is a grain of truth! Also, he knew them personally and remembered personal character traits which are invaluable.

This particular translation was taken from: http://magazines.russ.ru/nj/2003/233/sherbat.html
"In Smolensk, my family members were shot: my cousin Irina was 17 years old, my cousin Dmitry was 14 years old, my uncle Sergey Borisovich Shcherbatov with his wife Elizaveta (nee Plautina) and an aunt, Princess Khovanskaya. Her line after this "purge" ceased. I wrote down all the coordinates, but I did not immediately tell anyone. I arrived the next day alone, opened the first box, there were about 20 tons of documents. I did not get the Shcherbatov case, but it was supposed to be there. I doubt that I could find him alone. But here, one might say, was lucky: Alexander von Engelhardt helped me. From him I learned the history of the archive and details of the shooting of my family.

.. . The Cheka began to operate from the end of 1917. The former gendarmes and policemen, nobles, merchants and priests, cadets, schoolboys, students were exterminated. [The Cheka] shot not only adults but also children. "The Shcherbatov case" was found in documents for 1921: arrest, interrogation, sentence to be shot. Uncle's wife, who was very fond of Russia, was a half-English woman, and the reason for the arrest with the wording "English spies" was the family's affection for the English language. Something I was enchanted by Engelhardt, who himself interrogated my relatives: "Irina's cousin, she seemed to be afraid of nothing. She said: "I hate you. You are traitors to my homeland. " She was shot the next morning.

. . . And I remember Irina. Last time we met in Petersburg, she was then 15-16 years old, I was 6 or 7. Very beautiful and affectionate, always took me in her arms and kissed my head. I had such a special feeling for her. Uncle Sergey, a well-known artist, loved his estate near Smolensk, not far from the Goat Hills, and did not want to leave it. Alexander Engelhardt gave them out as "British intelligence officers". In the Goat Hills, with the shooting of my relatives, the GPU cemetery began, where five thousand Polish officers were destroyed many years later."

Notes:

It is believed by many that Dmitry Scherbatoff escaped from captivity (through the help of servants and/or friends) after his family was arrested in 1921. That he fled to Siberia and changed his name to Vasily Kuzmich Shcherbakov, becoming a brilliant scientist and teacher, hiding his origins for sixty years while claiming to have been born in Ujeka Yenisei Provence as "a peasant" -- only revealing his true identity to his wife and children shortly before his own death in 1981.

Some branches of the family believe this to be true while others believe that he died with his mother and sister in Smolensk. I am including the wife and sons of Vasily Shcherbakov here for ease of research. To see some more information about this line, follow the link in the first source below.

T.S.Scherbatova-Shevyakova - the author of several publications on the history of Georgian medieval monumental art, including the album-book "monumental painting early Middle Georgia" (Tbilisi, "Art", 1983). Copies of the murals that made T.S.Scherbatovoy-Shevyakova since 1925, are remarkable not only highly artistic quality of workmanship, but also the fact that they are difficult to document the exact art critic and researcher. In 62 years of work it performed more than 600 square meters. meters of facsimile copies of the frescoes, which are now in major museums of Georgia, Armenia and Russia. Her selfless work was invaluable contribution to the study and preservation of world culture.

Иван Подвалов
August 3, 2021
В Лос Анджелесе, 30 июля 2021 года на 93 году жизни скончался Михаил Георгиевич Плаутин. Его долгая, насышенная, успешная и благополучная жизнь началась в Париже, где он родился в 1928 году. Его мать княгиня Татьяна Владимировна Шаховская (1899-1976) и отец Георгий Николаевич Плаутин (1898-1942) оказались во Франции как и тысячи других русских беженцев покинувших Россию в результате революции и гражданской войны.
Дед Михаила Георгиевича, на которого он был очень похож князь Владимир Алексеевич Шаховской, гвардии полковник, адъютант великого князя Николая Николаевича, преподаватель верховой езды в Николаевской Академии Генерального Штаба был расстрелян большевиками вместе со своим братом полковником Кавалергардского полка Леонтием Алексеевичем в 1918 году в Пятигорске.
Среди знаменитых предков Михаила Георгеевича, можно найти и русского ученого Михаила Ломоносова, и героев войны 1812 года Николая Раевского с его прямым предком генералом Николаем Федоровичем Плаутиным.
Все Плаутуны так же как и Шаховские прекрасно говорили по французски, поэтому большинство перебрались во Францию где и осели совместно со многими своими родственниками: князьями Куракиными, графами Толстыми Милославскими и многими другими.
Отец Михаила, Георгий Николаевич окончив университет в Бельгии получив профессию инженера не смог найти работу в Бельгии и Франции и в 1930х переехал с женой и двумя детьми в Северную Африку, в Королевство Марокко и Алжир где работал на строительстве железной дороги. Судьба сложилась так, что семья распалась, его жена Татьяна Владимировна вернулась с детьми во Францию, а Георгий Николаевич погиб на работе в Марокко, во время Второй Мировой Войны в 1942 году, под фашистскими бомбами во время обстрела.
Михаил Георгиевич во Франции вырос в окружении тетушек и бабушек, у его матери было четыре сестры которые все поселились во Франции, так же он был близок и с родными своего отца, Плаутиными.
По окончании Второй Мировой Войны, по приглашению своего друга Серафима Милорадовича и при содействии своего троюродного дяди будушего Архиепископа Иоанна Шаховского он приезжает в США, с начала на восточное побережье где остановился первое время в семье дочери барона П. Н. Врангеля, Натальи. С началом Корейской Войны вступает в американскую армию. После службы в армии он поступает в Колумбийский Университет, а потом в Университете Стэнфорда где получил диплом инженера.
В 1957 году женился на Нине Ивановне Ключаровой, которая прибыла в США из Персии. Этот брак был единственным в жизни Михаила Георгиевича. Вскоре после женитьбы у них родилась дочь, но к сожалению в связи с врожденной болезнью она прожила всего несколько лет. Это жизненное потрясение Михаил и Нина пережили вместе, и Михаил Георгиевич принял решение получить еше одно образование в Калифорнийском Университете в Лос Анджелесе по специальности управление бизнесом.
Рабочая карьера Михаила Георгиевича началась в одном из конструкторских бюро здесь в Лос Анджелесе где проектировались самолеты для военно морских сил США. Михаил Георгиевич провел 23 года работая в бюро и при выходе в отставку занимал должность главного инженера.
С выходом в отставку, он совместно с женой начал заниматься частным бизнесом. В 1982 году, он по просьбе Александры Ивановны Мергер, основательницы русского Святого Иоанна Кронштадского старческого дома, стал представителем благотворительного Фонда Св. Иоанна Кронштадского на западное побережье США.
С этого момента Михаил Георгеевич посвятил себя служению и заботе о русском старческом доме и его поселенцах. На его плечах оказалась большая но благородная задача. Все 40 лет его работы в качестве попечителя Русского старческого дома были ценнейшим вкладом в сушетсвование самого дома, ведь были случаи когда дом был на гране катастрофы и закрытия, когда не хватало средств на ремонт, когда у поселенцев не находилось денег на похороны и всегда на помошь приходил Михаил Георгиевич.
Он был не только меценатом в русском старческом доме, но и бескорыстно помогал Русскому Богородицкому Собору (Американской юрисдикции) в Лос Анджелесе, одним из его последних вкладов был ремонт сцены в зале для приемов находяшимся при соборе. Михаил Георгиевич был и отличным певцом, долгое время пел в хоре собора, потом брал уроки по оперному пению у итальянского учителя, и даже смог выпустить диск со своим сольным выступлением.
За свои заслуги Михаил Георгеевич получил несколько Синодальных Благодарственных Грамот, а так же был награжден Великой Княгиней Марией Владимировной Орденом Святой Анны 3й степени.
Oн был последним представителем русского дворянского рода Плаутиных, с его смертью род пресекся. Во Франции, в Нормандии проживает его сестра Мария Де Синген де Онса которая приезжала навестить Михаила Георгиевича последний раз в 2017 году. Там же во Франции проживают и дочери его двоюродного брата Николая Плаутина, среди потомков Плаутиных во Франции есть и знаменитaя скульптор и артист Доминик де Сегюн (Дomenique de Seguin).
Михаил Георгеевич с супругой и сестрой неоднократно бывали в России, особенно запомнился ему круиз по реке Волге. Его связь с Россией продолжалась до последнего дня, жильцы дома на набережной реки Невы в Петербурге, который когда то принадлежал Плаутиным поддерживали с ним связь, делились фотографиями и видео.
Михаил Георгиевич несмотря на свой возраст всегда участвовал в заседаниях правления старческого дома, посешал собор и был интереснейшим собеседником, он всегда был рад поделится напутствием, советом или воспоминаниями. Совсем недавно он участвовал в съемках документального фильма Конгресса Русских Американцев, посвяшенному 100 летию русского исхода из Крыма, где делился семейными воспоминаниями. Мне же, удалось буквально месяц назад взять еше одно интервью где мы разговаривали на религиозные и философские темы. Это его последнее интервью будет использовано в документальном фильме о 100 летии первого Русского Православного Прихода в Южной Калифорнии. Совсем недавно, выяснялось что в России у него нашлись дальние родственники потомки княгини Елизаветы Сергеевны Шербатовой (урожденной Плаутиной), но связать родственников к сожалению не получилось.
Панихиды об упокоении раба Божьего Михаила были отслужены в Лос Анджелесе, Франции и Санкт Петербурге в Казанском Соборе. Вечная память!
