Talk:Maximilian von Alopaeus

Request by BRIAN0918
Here's initial version: "His elder brother, Maxim Maximovich (1748 - 1822) studied theology in Åbo and Hettingen. After finishing the university he devoted himself to the diplomatic career and became the count Panin's secretary. In 1783 Alopeus was appointed resident-minister at court of the Bishop of Lübeck where he maintained the correspondence between Cesarevich Pavel with Friedrich II. In 1789 Alopeus was sent to Berlin where he stayed for 6 years, gained favor from Friedrich-Wilhelm II and secured the signing of allied treaty between Russia and Prussia. During the reign of Emperor Pavel A. was out of work. In 1802 A. was appointed envoy at the Prussian court. The rapprochement of Russia and Prussia took place extensively thanks to A. In 1807 A. was sent to London as an ambassador extraordinary, but the Tilsit Treaty soon put his mission to the end. A. participated in the Aachen congress". --Brand спойт 16:36, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Family tree
I found something of a family tree on-line. I could not quite make it out, but here is the text regarding Maximilian : "7. Magnus (Maximilian) von (kurländskt indigenat 28. 2. 1784 nr. 220) Alopaeus, rysk envoyé, verkligt geheimeråd, döpt i Viborg 11.1.1748, d. i Frankfurt a. M. 6. 6. 1822. - G. 1:o 1794 m.

Vyborg in 1748
The article states that Maximilian von Alopaeus was born in Vyborg in Finland in 1748. Reading the article about Vyborg, I get the impression that Vyborg was in Russia at that time, and had been since 1721. My knowledge of history is insufficient to resolve this inconsistency.
