    Notes 
    • [large-G675.FTW]

      Burke calls him Great Duke of Russia. Snorri Sturlasson call him Prince of
      Holmgarth and shows his children as Holti-Nimble, Vissivald, Ellisif.

      Donald Lines Jacobus (1883-1970), the "Founder of Scientific
      Genealogy in America" wrote an article in The American Genealogist (TAG)
      9:13-15 entitled "The House of Rurik." I quote: "To correct the many
      errors that have appeared in print, and to aid those who follow the pastime
      of tracing "royal ancestry," the following condensed account of the early
      Rurikides is here printed. It is based in large part on "Genealogies et
      Mariages Occidentaux des Rurikides Russes du Xe au XIIIe Siecle," published
      at Rome in 1927 as Vol. IX, No. 1, of *Orientalia Christiana.* The author,
      N. de Baumgarten, is probably the best Undisclosed authority on early Russian
      history, and every statement made on the fourteen genealogical tables of
      his monograph is fully supported by the citation of contemporary documents
      and chronicles."

      I am not attacking Jacobus, who is a giant among genealogists and
      certainly needs no defenders. Neither am I disagreeing with Alexander
      Agamov, in Moscow, who has pointed out that there is no credible evidence
      that Rurik was ever "Prince of Kiev" and progenitor of the line beginning
      with Igor, Grand Prince of Kiev, who married Olga. I hope Alexander Agamov
      is reading this. Some historians and genealogists, Russians in particular,
      have taken sharp issue with the theory that the Kievan Rus was founded by
      a "Dane" rather than a "Slav"----and the evidence for "The Varangian
      Theory" seems fragmentary and inconclusive, at best.

      G. Andrews Moriarty and Walter L. Sheppard in TAG 28:91-95 also
      quote the N. de Baumgarten material as authoritative [specifically
      "Orientalia Christiana, No. 119, N. de Baumgarten, "Aux Origines de la
      Russie," p. 79. Both Jacobus and Moriarty/Sheppard headline their charts
      with "Rurik (d. 879) Grand Prince of Kiev." Jacobus probably did not read
      10th to 13th century Russian. But--- some of us may.

      For anyone who might conceivably have access to the original, 1927,
      N. de Baumgarten source---is it provable that, "every statement made on the
      fourteen genealogical tables of his monograph is fully supported by the
      citation of contemporary documents and chronicles?"

      Or, is it possible that Jacobus and the other experts simply
      trusted in N. de Baumgarten's scholarship and professionalism---and did not
      really check out the facts themselves. The Editor of a journal, such as
      TAG, certainly cannot check out every fact and document himself. But, in
      this particular case, Jacobus gives the N. de Baumgarten material his
      personal imprimatur, as cited above [TAG 9:13, Paragraph 2]

      So----has N. de Baumgarten in his "Orientalia Christiana"---dealing
      with "The House of Rurik"---been totally discredited by subsequent rigorous
      scholarship---or does his judgment still seem credible to some serious
      scholars----or are there alternate explanations?

      This is an intriguing question of interest to many folks who are
      descended from Anne of Kiev (c. 1024-c.1066) [Anna Yaroslavna] who married
      Henry I, King of France.
