There were two Grand Duchess Maria Nikolaevna: ( probably even more, but two significant ones )

1. Grand Duchess Maria daughter of Tsar Nicholas I born: 1819 / died: 1876 she married Maximillian de Beauharnais

2. Grand Duchess Maria daughter of the last Tsar Nicholas II born:1899 / died: 1918 she was executed by the Bolsheviks.

Since both their respective fathers were named: Nicholas, they both have the patronymic of Nikolaevna(?) -- there should be two distinct articles on these two with different labels? Right now there is only one article for the second one. There are references/links to the first one which are incorrectly linked to that article. There does not appear to be an article on the first Grand Duchess (1819-1876) if so, the links should be corrected.

[edit] Maria's Tonsil Operation

I was just wondering who put in the bit about Maria hemmorhaging in 1914?? I have never heard this before and just wondered what the historical source was. --SaraFL 11:48, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

I listed the source -- an old biography of Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna, quoting the grand duchess.--Bookworm857158367 17:51, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
