A mystery woman, died aged 29, suggested as a possible Tatiana Romanova, second daughter of the Czar of Russia Nickolas II, who miraculously escaped from the fate of the rest of the family (See the book The Romanov Conspiracies by Michael Occleshaw, London, 1993). Not much known about her. The information on the marriage certificate to Owen Tudor was irregular, giving her name as Larissa Haouk, with her father Adolph Haouk, which contradicts to the inscription on her tombstone which gives her parental name as Feodor. The death certificate recorded that she died from heart exhaustion resulting from spinal caries and pulmonary tuberculosis. According to one version, she was a belly-dancer in a night-club in Constantinople, the daughter of a pork-butcher. According to another, she came from a very good family in St Petersburg, Russia.
Upon her death, her husband received quite a sizable sum of money, equivalent to two years' pay for a soldier. Many speculated that the funds he received originated from money Larissa's father had hidden away in foreign banks for his daughters.
Over 60 years later, neighbors who were shown photographs of the Grand Duchess Tatiana immediately identified her as the lady calling herself Larissa Tudor.
