Adelaida Chetverikova

This is my aunt Adelaida Chetverikova.

I had stayed at her place for two years when I studied in Moscow.

The picture was made Moscow in 1946.

Grandparents, the Goldenbergs had five children: 4 sons and a daughter. My father Jacob Goldenberg was the eldest.

His brothers' names were: Alexander, Semion, Mikhail and his sister's name was Adelaida. Father loved his brothers and sister. But he came to see Alexander more often, as Alexander lived in Bakhchisarai, nor far from Sevastopol.

Aunt Adelaida, the youngest one, was born in 1896. She graduated from Moscow medical institute. She was a doctor roentgenologist.
She went to war and stayed by the front-line hospital.

Russian philosopher Ivan Chetverikov was her husband. [Ivan Pimenovich Chetverikov (1880 - 1969) was a Russian thinker and philosopher.

He was a professor of Kiev Ecclesiastical academy in the 1900s-1910s. He went through exile and imprisonment during Soviet regime.

In 1941 he was mobilized in the Soviet Army. Upon termination of the war he remained in Germany.

He held lectures on Orthodoxy in many German cities from the 1950s to the 1960s and also wrote theological articles. Died in Stuttgart.] It was a great love wedlock.

They met in Simferopol, where he held lectures as a philosophy professor. Adelaida took her husband's name Chetverikova and became Orthodox [Christian]. My grandmother did not seem to object to it. They had a son Nicolay Chetverikov.

She died in Moscow in 1976.
