The book was in Russian. I was searching the Internet when found out she is a kin of Nick Clegg!!!<br />The book says his great great aunt was not a daughter of the famous Zakrevsky. She was a big lier and a double agent working for the British and the Russians. Anyway, just letting you know.<br />But what is interesting she was a wife of an Estonian noble, and Mr. Clegg does have more chance to claim the land in Estonia!!!<br />Good luck I wish I had the papers to claim the land that belonged to my great-grandparents in Ukraine. :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6606798.post-16369337177113452302010-05-16T21:14:24.489+01:002010-05-16T21:14:24.489+01:00Oh God, Is this what they do?

...'Zakrevsky ... was also a leading Mason.'<br /><br />Before your British readers get too excited, let me mention that Continental Masons are not the same as British ones. They are radically anti-clerical and mystical. Franco had Masons on his list of enemies, and there have been rumours that the Spanish Socialist PM is a Mason (his father, a Republican army officer shot by Franco's rebels, certainly was).<br /><br />Russian Masonicism is represented by Pierre Bezukhov in War and Peace.Lavengro in Spainhttp://lavengro.typepad.com/lavengro_in_spain/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6606798.post-69353114015533917062010-05-15T22:39:40.042+01:002010-05-15T22:39:40.042+01:00Jane
