SUVOROV’S ARMENIAN ANCESTORS



Alexander Suvorov (1730-1800) has been named all-Russian generalissimo, earl of Holy Roman Empire, «Russian lion, Hercules», «Symbol of national military genius», «a man who wins always and everywhere, in any circumstances», «first sword of Russia».

His Armenian grandfather, i.e. father of his mother Yevdokiya (Avdotya) Manukova (1711-1746), Fedosey Semyonovich Manukov is the first Armenian who is known to us that he has been officially conferred highest officer’s title of general.

According to some Russian sources Suvorov’s mother’s name was Dshkhuhi and her father’s name was Tadevos.
