Talk:Vera Danchakoff

Notes about article's creation
I have not been able to find out Danchakoff's maiden name, names of parents, husband's name (though I suppose from her daughter's name he was Evgeny Danchakoff), date of marriage or whether there were any other children. I don't know very much about where she worked in Europe. Regarding her death I have found one article in Russian http://ihst.ru/files/pdfs/GK-IIET-2013-1.pdf speculating she died in 1950 but I found a 1951 review of her 1949 book not mentioning a death. I hope her fading out from history wasn't in any way due to Stalin not liking geneticists but there is no particular reason to think she was at that time in Russia (France was maybe more likely).

 * I see another editor added this, since removed because it was sourced to ancestry.com. When I am able to see the primary sources I'll see if I think they can be legitimately used. In the meantime the extra details are that she was born 21 March 1879, died 22 September 1950 in Switzerland, her father was Michael Grigerofsky, her (first?) husband was Eugene Danchakoff who died in 1906. Her daughter's first husband was Igor Grozdoff, married 1922. (I have recently found a New York Herald source that says her unnamed husband died 18 months after their marriage and that she left her daughter in Russia when she emigrated to America but who had reached the US by November 1919.
