there names were changed to hide them from the
Russian government . Yakovs son had 3 daughters betty bobbie and molly. We have tried to ask hundreds of times about him with no avail. They refuse to talk the only thing i can think of is there disgraced about what happened to the Zars family or they are scared, as a child i do remember them telling me there were scared of what would happen if they were found out so i dont know. We were only told he was the most brutal executioner under the Zar. The last of the daughters will not be with us much longer and is still refusing to talk even to this day and the rest of us would like more information as we keep running into road blocks when looking it seems someone or something is preventing us from finding out more maybe to protect i dont know and am frustrated about it so im here asking you. We would like more of a family background if it can be found ie: other children names places and whos still alive ...As the older members of this family will not be around much longer myself included ... I will look forward to any responses in reguard to this and my mail is open to those who have any information that they can share . Contact:
368:"And perhaps his heir". Do you mean the only actual child that was murdered in the massacre? How is the murder of a 13-year-old boy less barbaric than that of adult women or teenage girls? Because he had political value? Well, the Romanov women had it as well. They could have been used as symbols or inspiring figures by the enemies of the Soviets regardless of what the law said about succession and that is why they were murdered. You say that chasing women with bayonets is not "execution", and I completely agree, but shooting, beating, and stabbing a child could never be "execution" either, otherwise I don´t see the point in bringing morality into this debate at all. It is either "murder" to kill people without trial solely for political reasons or it isn´t. The only person there who could be said to have been executed and not murdered was Nicholas and even then it is doubtful since he didn´t get a trial (Which doesn´t mean this man who held a lot of power and probably had blood in his hands was innocent, only that to call what happened to him without warning or a chance to defend himself "execution" is laughable).

what you like, and you can try to scrub these pages of the brutality of
Marxism in action. Are you some how related to this butcher? That people like you still exist in our world, and take the time to put your propaganda forward, shows me that it is necessary to be forever vigilant. The forces of World Marxism are obviously alive and well, and they are in leauge, perhaps, with people akin to this butcher. That could be the real story here, folks.
326:
so that its political. If this were political, it seems like they would have only killed the Czar and perhaps his heir. Tell me: What did their servants and doctor do to deserve being shot and stabbed to death? Any references to the killings of these people, besides "murder" is simply whitewashing. By
Russian law, the Romanovs are considered victims of political repression; no less murdered than those killed in Nazi concentration camps. --

Q.: Regarding the phrase, "this may have been prompted by the prejudice toward Jews frequently exhibited in Russia at the time." Which came first, the chicken or the egg? In other words, which came first, antisemitism by
Russians or Jewish participation in anarchist and other revolutionary groups?
310:
Take your empty hyperbole elsewhere, my anonymous friend. Czarist Russia wasn't exactly a democratic wonderland. Pogroms, serfdom (abolished by
Alexander II, but obviously too late to decisively appease the growing opposition) and deportations to Siberia. I can't blame the red Russians for revolting,
284:
Also, "murder" is defined as the unlawful killing of a person. Whoever wrote the article states that the members of the Royal Family were "murdered" by
Yurovsky's comrades. If the Soviet ruled they were enemies of the state, they were therefore lawfully executed, and "killed" rather than "murdered."
575:
However, as of 2011 there has been no conclusive evidence that either Lenin or
Sverdlov gave the order. V.N. Solovyov, the leader of the Investigative Committee of Russia's 1993 investigation on the shooting of the Romanov family, has concluded that there is no reliable document that indicates that
325:
How does that justify the brutal murder of defenseless women who had no political power or real relation to the situation at hand? Murder is the proper word, as chasing someone around the room with a bayonet is not an "execution". You speak of hyperbole, but you changed the meaning of the situation
305:
It is curious to me that you would take the time to discuss the difference between 'murder' and 'execution:'. What does that tell us about you? Many people feel that state sponsered 'execution' is murder by the government. In any case what this butcher execute did was barbaric. You can call it

I have to post this i tried and im hoping this one works.. I am a direct decendent of Yakov. We have been looking for more information about him but my family is not forth coming at all and i will explain why ... Yakovs son and most of the family were taken out of russia in secret to

I corrected a couple of minor factual errors. Unfortunately, there is a reference to questionable, probably forged documents relating to the execution squad. Researchers are now able to determine more facts relating to the execution. This page really should be re-evalutated for accuracy. Kate

A bizarre comment. Anti-Semitism came first, as even a superficial glance at
Russian and Ukrainian history prior to the 19th century would show. Implying that the Talmud is the reason for "Jewish participation in anarchist and other revolutionary groups" is laughable, even more so given that
292:. So you're saying that the Bolsheviks were the legal government of Russia, but the Nazis and Hitler were not the legal government in Germany. At least the Nazis were elected. I'll go out on a limb and say that the Jews killed in Nazi Germany were in fact 'murdered.' ````Shandafirde

The "source" seems to be the published books of Robert Wilton from the early 1920s, who was a raving antisemite believing in things like the Blood Libel. Here are some footnotes which prove why it is so hard to ascertain

I recently read: "The Fate of the Romanovs" by Greg King and Penny Wilson (Wiley, 2003) that suggests that Yurovsky's death was due to a heart attack, and not an ulcer. Although, the text did mention the fact he had an ulcer at the time he died.
