    [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.
