According to Kthe Beutler:

There were six children in my mothers family, two sons and four
daughters. The oldest brother of my mother (Adolf) was a very gifted per-
son. His hobby was music; although he did not play an instrument, he could
sing a whole opera by heart. He was an admirer of Wagner, who just became
famous when Adolf was a young man. He started in his fathers (RN82)
business, but evidently, this did not work out, and he emigrated to Russia.
In order to get permission to live in St. Petersburg and to get a job there, he
had to give up his Jewish faith, but he did not get baptized. I dont know
anything about his first years there. I remember him only being the presi-
dent of the Russian-Chinese Bank. In addition he did some dealing for the
government; he secured some loans from France for the Russian government.
He was married to a former actress (Eugenie LeGrenzie. RN85), a gentile
from impoverished Austrian nobility. She freely spent his money, or he
spent it for her, because she owned one of the most beautiful strings of
pearls and a lot of valuable jewelry. Her clothes were bought in Paris. They
owned a villa near Ischl in Austria, where they spent several months in
summer every year with their two children, a girl (Elsie, RN103) and a boy
(Fritz, RN104). Besides, they travelled every year in Spring to Biarritz, a
resort on the Atlantic Coast of Spain.

The beginning was good, but the end was bad. My uncle died at age
forty eight of a streptococcus infection.
