Mr. I.E. Peyton
Mr. Ivor Eliot Peyton, who accidentaly met his death in England recently, was well known in the Charleville--Auguthella district of Queensland. He was a son of the late Colonel John Peton of the 7th Dragoon Guards, and at the age of 18 settled in Australia with his eldest brother, Guy, where he acquired an interest in the Oakwood station and Chatham grazing selection near Charleville. He returned to England in 1912.

Peyton of Oakwood
More than 40 years ago two young Englishmen, Guy and Ivor Peyton, came to Queensland and became part owners of Oakwood stationin the Charleville district. Later they acquired considerable property in Brisbane, which is still held by the family.
They returned to England some years ago, Ivor becoming a member of the staff of his brother, General Sir William Peyton, in Gallipoli, afterwards commanding a labour battalion in France. After the war he bought Englemere Wood at Ascot, in Berkshire, taking a prominent part in the local affairs of his district.
This week I had information that Ivor, then 74 years of age, had been accidentally killed by falling from a railway bridge. A detailed report in an English newspaper says that he was taking his dogs for a walk and fell from the bridge in a fit of giddiness.
Many old RESIdents of the Charleville district will remember the kindly owners of Oakwood.

--- "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.

For all of them are close relatives.

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.

Lord Peyton of Yeovil
Former Conservative Minister, He Stood Against Thatcher for the Tory Leadership
by John Biffen

Lord Peyton of Yeovil, who has died aged 87, was a former Conservative minister of transport industries (1970-74) under Edward Heath, and MP for Yeovil from 1959 to 1983. He was a man who relished controversy rather than consensus, and thus he might have settled for the role of backbench gadfly, but instead he aspired to high ministerial office. He unsuccessfully stood against Margaret Thatcher for the Tory leadership in 1975 and his failure to be included in her cabinet from 1979 was a great disappointment to him. This he did not hide, but he bore it with a commendable lack of rancour. Peyton was educated at Eton and Trinity College, Oxford. At that point, he showed only a modest interest in politics, confessing: "I became overfond of racing." He joined the supplementary reserve of the 15/19 Hussars, and, with the onset of the second world war, was despatched to France. He was taken prisoner in Belgium in 1940, an experience he graphically described in his autobiography Without Benefit of Laundry (1997). His younger brother was killed in action at St Nazaire in 1942.

As a prisoner, he studied law, and, after the war made tentative steps in pursuing a legal career, but the attractions of politics proved stronger. In the 1950 general election, he unsuccessfully fought the Labour stronghold of Bristol Central, but in 1951 won Yeovil. His first decade at Westminster was spent on the backbenches. He was a natural "below the gangway" politician, with an eye for the political jugular and an acerbic wit. From there, he became the parliamentary private secretary to Nigel Birch, a junior defence minister, a match in style. He joined the government in 1962 as parliamentary secretary to the minister of power but this spell in office was terminated by Labour's general election victory in 1964.

He next took office in 1970 with the general election victory of Heath. He was initially appointed minister of transport, but after six months the post was renamed ministry of transport industries. It was a change in name rather than in function, and it was the kind of gobbledygook that irritated Peyton. He was confronted by a railway system that was dilapidated and under-capitalised, a road network that was outstripped by vehicle growth, and ports that were bedevilled by restrictive practices. He yearned for the transport reforms that were eventually carried out by Conservative ministers after 1979.

In minor matters, however, Peyton was able to indicate his implicit radicalism. In 1971, Thomas Cook, British Rail's travel agency, was denationalised. He insisted that a white paper on port finances be reduced from an initial 100 pages to less than five - a modest matter but within Whitehall a triumph. Peyton's greatest claim to ministerial fame was his dispassionate view of nationalised industry executives and his determination to leave them relatively free from political supervision.

After the Conservatives' election defeat in February 1974, Heath offered him the novel post of shadow leader of the house. Peyton enthusiastically played the aggressive role that Heath had assigned to him. Nevertheless, he had only a modest time to develop his skills before prime minister Harold Wilson increased his majority in October 1974, and the Conservatives subsequently arranged a leadership election. Peyton stood at the second ballot when Thatcher, who had already despatched Heath on the first vote, defeated all candidates. There was puzzlement as to why Peyton should have stood. Unlike fellow contestants, Geoffrey Howe and James Prior, he had no cabinet experience; and unlike William Whitelaw, another contestant, he had no traditional constituency within the parliamentary party. The gesture, although heroic, did not promote Peyton's reputation. He obtained 11 votes and was bottom of the poll. His behaviour was seen as the tactics of a maverick.

Thatcher offered him the post of agriculture in her shadow cabinet. He loyally carried out this task; but the man and the post were not an ideal partnership. Peyton was too honest to accommodate the special pleading that dominates agricultural politics. On the other hand, his determination to end the distortions of the "green" pound were generally approved by farmers.

The Conservative election in 1979 was an acutely unhappy episode for Peyton. All other members of the shadow cabinet were confirmed in office; he alone was excluded. He made public his disappointment, but he was as good as his word in disavowing any plans to be an embittered backbench critic. He was sent to the Lords in 1983, from where he frequently questioned the wisdom of the Commons.

Peyton also managed to pursue other activities. He was chairman of the British subsidiary of the American company Texas Instruments (1974-90) and of British Alcan Aluminium (1987-91).

As treasurer of the Zoological Society of London (1984-91), which is responsible for London Zoo and Whipsnade wild animal park, there was much public interest, and rancour, over measures needed to repair the society's finances. Peyton was much concerned that these should be put on a sound footing and that this would require government financial assistance. Eventually, Peyton, and others, RESIgned when efforts failed to bring about fiscal realism.

Peyton was an essentially private person. Few realised the extent of his grief at the loss of his brother, and later, the childhood death of one of his sons. He may not have succeeded in the quest for political office, but there can be no doubt about the impact of his craggy individualism, a quality he brought to Westminster. Interestingly, he opposed capital punishment.

He is survived by his second wife, Mary, whom he married in 1966, and by the son and daughter of his first marriage.

· John Wynne William Peyton (Lord Peyton of Yeovil), politician, born February 13 1919; died November 22 2006

---- Obituary in "The Times" 24 Nov 2006

Tory minister who advised Edward Heath to go like a good sport after his defeat by Margaret Thatcher

John Peyton was one of the four senior Conservatives present when Edward Heath was told the result of the first ballot for the Conservative leadership in February 1975. When asked what action Heath, unexpectedly beaten into second place by Margaret Thatcher, should take, Peyton said that, though the British had differing views about winners, they admired good losers.

When Heath withdrew, Peyton was one of those who was persuaded to enter the second ballot, a decision he regretted, since he came bottom of the poll, gaining only 11.

Although Peyton served in Margaret Thatcher?s Shadow Cabinet for four years, he was the only opposition spokesman not to become a minister in May 1979, not surprisingly as his contributions had not always been from the Thatcher hymn sheet. In January 1973, during a discussion on two policy documents, Peyton said that Conservatives should be ?against appeasement and confrontation, but there had to be a third way?, a pre-echo of later Blairite sentiments.

Disappointed at his rejection, he told the whips that he intended to change his name to Cinderella and obey the Fairy Godmother?s instructions not to stay out too late.

Thereafter he concentrated on his business career, leaving the Commons at the general election of 1983, when he became a life peer. His seat at Yeovil, which he had held for 32 years, was lost to Paddy Ashdown, the future Liberal Democrat leader.

John Wynne William Peyton was born in 1919 and educated at Eton, where, as a member of the OTC, he was in the honour guard within the grounds of Windsor Castle at the state funeral of King George V in 1936.

In 1937 he went up to Trinity College, Oxford, to read law. He dabbled in university politics and spoke at the Union, then under the presidency of Edward Heath. But in the summer of 1939 he sought a commission in the l5th/l9th Hussars. Going abroad with the British Expeditionary Force, he was captured in Belgium in May 1940. (His younger brother was killed in action at St Nazaire in 1942.)

Imprisoned first at Laufen in Bavaria, he was later sent to Warburg in Westphalia. The long years were made endurable by study for his future Bar exams. In the summer of 1942 he was moved to Eichstatt in Bavaria. In the spring of 1945 a forced march to a fourth camp at Moosburg suffered casualties when Allied aircraft strafed the columns which they mistook for German formations. Soon afterwards the camp was liberated by the Americans.

He was called to the Bar at the Inner Temple and joined the chambers of Patrick Devlin. One of his first briefs was on House of Lords business, after which he was offered, but declined, the post of assistant private secretary to Lord Jowitt, the Labour Lord Chancellor.

In early 1946 he was appointed personal assistant to Walter Monckton on the eve of his tour of duty in India to prepare for the transfer of power. Peyton was at Viceroy?s House when the health of the King Emperor was drunk by Mountbatten for the last time.

On his return to England Peyton became a Lloyd?s broker and sought a Conservative candidacy. He fought the Labour stronghold of Bristol Central in the 1950 general election, and entered the Commons in October 1951 as Member for Yeovil. In 1952 he became parliamentary private secretary to Nigel Birch at the Ministry of Defence, an appropriate first step on the rung, as Westland Helicopters and the Fleet Air Arm at Yeovilton were important constituency concerns.

Seen by some as a maverick rightwinger (he was later a member of the Monday Club), Peyton was a more complex political persona than that. He was a consistent opponent of capital punishment at a time when this could lead to difficulties in Conservative constituencies.

After his spell at the Ministry of Defence, Peyton had to wait eight years for his next post, as parliamentary secretary at the Ministry of Power, in 1962. After the 1964 Tory defeat, he shadowed the post in Opposition until Edward Heath?s reshuffle in the summer of 1966.

Peyton felt that his political career was now at an end, but in 1969 Heath invited him to produce a West Country strategy document for the next election, and when the Conservatives unexpectedly won power in June 1970, he was appointed Transport Minister. The post was soon subsumed into a super-ministry in October and his job description became ?Minister for Transport Industries in the Department of the Environment?. He was sceptical of the value of such departmental integration, preferring to plough his own furrow.

In November 1970 Peyton had to deal with the aftermath of the collapse of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Port Board, and in January 1971 he announced the sale of British Rail?s travel agency, Thomas Cook. He did not sympathise with the 1971 Industry Bill and when the ?payroll ministers? were whipped to ensure victory over dissident backbenchers, Peyton?s room at the House was the scene of a desolate picnic supper attended by three unhappy ministers.

Further controversy came with Peyton?s decision to make the wearing of helmets compulsory for motorcyclists and, later, seatbelts for motorists. The Green Paper of March 1973 on the proposed Channel Tunnel was his responsibility, and he signed the initial agreement with his French counterpart. His friendship with John Betjeman, who accompanied him on some ceremonial railway events, was a feature of this time.

Another close friend was William Walton, and he generously allowed Heath to take over the 70th birthday celebrations he had been arranging for the composer, which became a semi-state function at Downing Street in the presence of the Queen Mother. When the Heath Government encountered industrial difficulties in the autumn of 1973, Peyton was a strong advocate of a pre-Christmas election. He believed, not merely with hindsight, that the February 1974 contest was a miscalculation.

After the Conservatives? second defeat in the general election of October 1974, Peyton, who had taken up business posts with Texas Instruments (of which he was UK chairman, 1974-90), Alcan Aluminium, and the London and Manchester Assurance Company, became Shadow Leader of the House of Commons, a post in which his humour and geniality were valuable assets at a difficult parliamentary time.

In February 1975 he was caught up in the dramatic events following the fall of Heath ? but he was never a serious candidate for the leadership. His place in the leader?s consultative committee was thereafter a tenuous one, and when he was made agriculture spokesman in 1976, he regarded that as one place nearer the door, which indeed closed behind him when the Conservatives returned to office in May 1979.

After leaving the Commons and entering the Lords he resumed his business career, becoming chairman of British Alcan Aluminium in 1987. He was an energetic treasurer of the Zoological Society of London, 1984-91. In 1997, Peyton published a memoir, Without Benefit of Laundry.

Peyton married in 1947 Diana Clunch, with whom he had two sons, one of whom died in childhood, and a daughter. This marriage was dissolved in 1966, and Peyton married Mary Cobbold. There were no children of his second marriage. He is survived by his wife and by a son and daughter of his first marriage.

Lord Peyton of Yeovil, politician, was born on February 13, 1919. He died on November 22, 2006, aged 87

--- From the notes of Serge Plaoutine:
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).

Notes:

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.
