Grand Duchess Olga Romanova 1895-1918
 
The oldest Romanov daughter, Olga was a good student who loved books and wrote poetry. Olga was generous and kind, but had a quick temper. She was the only one who argued with her mother. Olga was close to Nicholas and resembled him more than her sisters. She was 22 when she was murdered.

Born eighteen months after Olga, Tatiana was tall, regal and beautiful. She was known as 'The Governess' because she mothered her siblings and was always the one to ask her parents for difficult favors. Tatiana was close to her mother and showered attention on her. She was 21 when she died.
