[edit] Alexej Kapler
It is not true that Svetlana's Lover, Alexej Kapler, was "sent to a Siberian camp and died". He was, indeed, arrested and exiled to Vorkuta, a coal-mining city near the polar circle. He did not live under prison conditions. And, more, important, he did not die there. He fell in love to the actress Valentina Tokarskaya (who was also exiled). After Stalin's death, both returned to Moscow, where he lived until 1979. Sources: Zalesskii, K.A.: Imperia Stalina. Moskva 2000; Vasilyeva, L.N.: Kremlevskye deti. Moskva 1996.
[edit] Stalina
So she was Stalina, and not Dzhugashvili. Did Stalin legally change his surname?
Hehe, Stalin WAS the law. So I guess so. Whether there was ever a formal bureucratic process to do this is for the Soviet historians to discern and duly annotate. Sjc
- Have a look at the Russian-language Wikipedia, they've got Светлана Иосифовна Аллилуева. They use a father's name (Иосиф - Иосифовна) and not surname (Сталин - Сталина). It's approximately Svetlana Iosifovna Alliluyeva. I'll make the neccessary changes. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 83.9.45.216 (talk) 02:29, August 20, 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Olga
What became of Stalin's granddaughter? Mmartins
Wondering the same thing, I found an article that said that Olga Peters went to Britain, but this was back in 1984 when she was 13 (does that line up chronologically? Fephisto 05:37, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bristol
I recall reading that Svetlana Alliluyeva's second stay in Britain was in Bristol, but I can't verify it. Can anyone confirm this?

[edit] Svetlana's supposed marriage to Mikhail Kaganovich
Svetlana did not marry Mikhail Kaganovich; she suggests that no such person, to her knowledge, exists. In "Only One Year" (Harper & Row, c1969, p. 382) she writes about "the story spread in the West about 'Stalin's third wife' -- the mythical Rosa Kaganovich...." and also about her own supposed marriage to a Kaganovich. Svetlana writes: "Oddly enough, in the West they stubbornly tried to relate us to the Kaganovich family. To my astonishment, I learned from the German magazine 'Stern' that I had been married to 'Kaganovich's son' -- to my astonishment inasmuch as Kaganovich had no son. I actually had been friends with his daughter, and the adopted boy in the family was ten years younger than I; he, when he grew up, married a girl student of his own age." ~~J. Anderson, 29 January 2007
[edit] Broken up
Someone who knows what they are doing should split it up into sections. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.206.165.12 (talk) 05:30, 3 February 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Joseph and Ekaterina
What ever happened to her first couple of children, Jospeh, and Ekaterina? They seem totally forgotten during the article. Would be nice to know.
- "Ekaterina" should probably be "Jekaterina" in accordance with the general rules of translitteration.Tzench (talk) 13:33, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] references have been requested
there's plenty of TIME articles about the time of her defection, e.g. [2] —Preceding unsigned comment added by Smallbones (talk • contribs) 19:20, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
