Fallows, Edward H. (Edward Huntington), 1865-1940

Edward Huntington Fallows (1865-1940) was a graduate of Amherst College (AB 1890) and the Columbia Law School (LLB 1892). In 1892 he married Julia Haughton Kittredge Fallows (b. 1866-), and they had one daugher, Annette Richards Fallows (1893-1955). He was a member of the New York Legislature from 1899-1901 and was an inheritance tax and corporation tax attorney in New York City. Fallows was the lawyer for Anna Anderson, who claimed she was the Grand Duchess Anastasiia Nikolaevna, daughter of Nicholas II, (Emperor of Russia, 1901-1918). His daughter Annette added to these papers after his death in 1940.

Anna Anderson (born probably 1896, died 12 February 1984), was the best known of the women who claimed to be Grand Duchess Anastasia. Some historians believe that Anderson was actually Franziska Schanzkowski, a Polish peasant. Grand Duchess Anastasia was born on 5 June 1901 and was said to have been killed with her family on the night of 17 July 1918 by Bolsheviks in the town of Ekaterinburg, Russia.
