Polina Stallen-Medvedev

Polina Stallen-Medvedev was the daughter and eldest child of Dmitry Stallen and his wife, Vladlina Kuzmich-Stallen. She was their eldest child and had six younger siblings (her twin Artem Stallen, triplets Galya Stallen-Gerasimova, Anatoly Stallen, and Iskander Stallen, and twins Liliya Stallen-Solovyova and Cheslav Stallen).

Early Years
She was born in 1801, the year after her father took power as Czar of Russia and married Vladlina, during the events of Rise To Power: Dmitry Stallen. In June of 1803, she fled The Czar's Palace, which was newly built, in Moscow with her mother and siblings, and settled at the Wojciechowski Estate. Three years later, her mother remarried (Viktor Koslov) and the family of nine moved to their own Muscovite Estate. Her mother and step-father had six children, so she has six half siblings.

College and Married Life
In 1819, she attended college in Sochi, where she met her husband-to-be, Pavel Medvedev, who was two years her senior. They were married in 1824. They had four children, all born in Sochi. In 1834, Pavel accepted a job offer in Paris, France, so the family moved there. They returned to Russia several times to visit family.

Death
Soon Polina fell ill with the flu. Coupled with her old age her condition worsened. She was moved to a hospital in the suburbs of Paris. She died in 1895 in Paris at the age of 94, twelve years after her husband died. They were buried together at the very lowest level of The Czar's Palace. No one has since found their graves.
