Many of us know who Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin. Some have information about the facts from the biography of the famous poet. And, of course, we all read his immortal literary creations: “the prisoner of the Caucasus”, “the fountain of Bakhchisarai”, “the tales of Belkin" and so on. But few can remember how many children were in Pushkin. And this is a very interesting question. The fact that the great poet – a family man. He left behind four children. His numerous descendants live today around the globe.
Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin was born may 26, 1799 in Moscow into the family of a collegiate Registrar. The boy grew up, went to study. Six years he spent in Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum. It was first appreciated his poetic talent. After the training, Alexander became a collegiate Secretary. He improved in the writing of poetry, and then tries his hand at prose. In 1831 was held the wedding of the poet Natalia Goncharova, to whom he asked in marriage more than once. A Lot of interesting facts left a biography of Pushkin. The children and grandchildren of the writer, his duel with Dantes, ridiculous rumors about the bad reputation of his wife Natalya, which ultimately led to the death of the famous poet, and more. To write about everything, not enough for a whole book. So lift the veil of secrecy over one page in the life of Alexander – will tell about its children.
The First child of the couple Pushkin appeared on 19 may 1832. The girl was born. She was named Mary in honor of the grandmother of Alexander. I must say that the children of Pushkin and Goncharova were gifted and smart. It is known that Mary was 9 years fluent in two foreign languages: German and French. Received a privileged education, she is in the Catherine Institute, after which he became a maid of honour of Empress Maria Alexandrovna. In April 1860 a girl was married to major-General L. N. Hartung. In 1877 the husband of Mary, unjustly accused of stealing, was shot on the court. This was a terrible blow for the daughter of the poet. Died Mary A. March 7, 1919 in Moscow. The descendants she has left. Aware of the fact that the eldest daughter of the poet became the prototype of Anna Karenina in the immortal novel by Leo Tolstoy. Some of the features of her expressive appearance was reflected by the writer in this work.

If the eldest daughter of the poet did not leave behind offspring, the next child in the family – son of Alexander – became the father of many children. How many children were at Pushkin's Junior? It turns out, a lot. In total he had 11 children from his first marriage and 2 children from the second. Sasha was born in 1833. He was the toast of Natalia and Alexander. His parents affectionately called "Sasha". From childhood he was distinguished by energetic and violent temper. Studied and brought up Sasha in the corps of pages, after which was distributed as a cornet in the life guards cavalry regiment. He built a brilliant military career, he rose to the rank of Lieutenant General, was awarded medals and orders. First time he married nekrovnymi cousin by her stepfather Sophia Lansky. It was a romantic love story. The Church forbade such a Union. However, Natalia Goncharova is made for the fact that his son and daughter-in-law was happy. Ended this love story is tragic: Sonia died before reaching forty years of age. Eleven children left without a mother. Alexander, despite being very busy, trying to give them much attention. Children he helped raise sister Mary and aunt on the maternal side, Anna Vasilchikov. The second time Sasha was married in 1883 to Maria Pavlova. His contemporaries recall that she was an unpleasant person who loved to complain about the hard life of a General's wife. Children from first marriage husband's mother she was never replaced. In this Union Alexander was born two more children: a son and a daughter. Junior Elena appeared when General Pushkin was 57 years old. Alexander lived to a ripe old age and died 19 Jul 1914.
As mentioned above, children of Alexander Pushkin was gifted and talented. And though none of them did not continue his father's work, was not a poet or a writer, all made a good career and achieved recognition in society. The third child in the family of the great poet, son Gregory, appeared in 1835. He also, like his older brother, Alexander, graduated from the page corps. Then were, retired with the rank of Colonel. Was a privy Counsellor. What is known about his personal life? For a long time in his younger years he was improper when the Frenchwoman, who bore him three daughters. Natalia Goncharova was very worried for the fate of the younger son. In 1884, Gregory finally married - Barbara Moscovei. Children in this marriage has not appeared. Until 1899 Gregory lived in St. Michael, where, by establishing the office of a famous father, has immortalized his memory.
The Fourth child to the couple Pushkins was born in 1836. It was a girl called Natasha. ChildrenPushkin and Goncharova were distinguished by strength of character, stubbornness, impetuosity. Was no exception and Tasha (the so-called girl in the family). Contemporaries of the poet noted how she looks like his father. The girl received home education. It was called "beautiful daughter of a beautiful mother”. In 17 years, Tasha announced to his mother and stepfather about the desire to marry M. L. Dubelta, who proposed to her. Goncharova was against this marriage. However, the request of the daughter she had to give. The Union did not last long, broken up in 1862. After that Natalia Pushkin leaves with the two older children abroad to stay with his aunt. After the divorce she had to give her ex-husband the right to education one of the daughters – Anna. Her other two children remained in Russia under supervision of the grandmother of Natalia. Soon in London, Tasha married to a German Prince - the notorious Nikolai Wilhelm of Nassau. She lived with him a long and happy life. Princess Natasha, of course, was due to the fact that the marriage was unequal, but she was granted the title of Countess of Mehrenberg. Married to a Prince she had three children: daughters Sophia and Alexandra, and son, George. Died the Countess of Mehrenberg in 1913 in France, in Le Cannet. After her death, Natalia's body was cremated, ashes were scattered over the grave of her husband in the family vault. It was her will.
Thus, two of the four children of the great poet continued the race. We wonder how many children were in Pushkin? But even more interesting questions about how much he had grandchildren and great grandchildren, where today his descendants live. It turns out that about fifty distant relatives live in Russia. Among them, Tatiana Lucas, great-grandmother was a granddaughter of Alexander. The last direct descendant of Pushkin in the male line, bearing the name – Alexander, coinciding with the great grandson of the writer. He lives in Belgium. Also the descendants of the great poet living in the United States, in Germany and in England.
I Hope that the article we detailed answer to the question of how many children were at Pushkin's, and enough said about each of them.
