Welcome to the New Kudashev Web Site

Website Drafts and Notes (image from flickr)

Since 2007, there has been a www.koudachev.com/www.koudacheff.com web site.

At the suggestion of Cousin Kitty Stidworthy and after some consultation, it was agreed that the correct contemporary transliteration or Romanization of Кудашевы is "Kudashev". See the previous post. So I have copied all the data from the old web site to this new web site. The old web site will not be deleted. I will, however, add a final post notifying visitors of the move and providing a link to this web site.

Renaming and Readdressing the Koudachev Web Site

Cousin Kitty Stidworthy of Cambridge, England sends in the following recommendation:

Since the question of Romanization of the name Кудашевы has been raised, may I suggest that we follow the Library of Congress system, which is now pretty well standard in all Anglophone countries. Anybody unfamiliar with it can find it on the following sites:

Patent of Nobility for Prince Sergei Danilovitch Kudashev [1795 -1862]

This is an image of the patent of nobility confirming the nobility of Prince Sergei Danilovitch Kudashev (1795 -1862) and his wife, Mathilde Josephine-Catherine Kudashev (Choiseul-Gouffier) (1806 - 1867), as well as their ten children. The children were all individually named including:

Princess Myra Kudashev

Myra Armour – born Princess Maria Serguéievna Kudashev [1895 - 1990].

Family Genealogy

In the summer of 1999, I did a search on the Internet and came across a reference to Jacques Ferrand and to some books he has written on the noble families of ancient Russia. I ordered a book that included references to the Kudashev family. This revision is a scanned version of the chapter on the Kudashev family. I have left the text in the original French.
