Gabriel de Saint Nicholas[edit]

Thank you for your note on my talk page. I have done some work on the article and come to the conclusion that it is an elaborate hoax, based on the following:

I can find no good sources at all for a noble Hungarian family called "Kasa-Hunyady", but the Ahnentafel traces such a family back for five generations;
George, Crown Prince of Serbia, who is claimed as an ancestor of the subject in the Ahnentafel, had no children;
Felix Yusupov, who is also claimed as an ancestor, had no son called Felix;
Hence, there was no marriage between a daughter of Prince George and a son of Prince Yusupov, so there was no daughter of such a marriage;
The connection of the subject with the Serbian royal family appears to be falsified;
The online citation to "Obituary of Princess Marie Yusupov Karageorgevich (Serbian)" takes us to a web page which reports the death of Princess Marie Elizabeth Karagorgevic-Yusupov, at the age of 77, stating that the information is based on "saopšteno je danas iz kancelarije njenog unuka, grofa Kasa-Hunjadi", or "an announcement today from the office of her grandson, Count Kasa-Hunjadi". This article claims that Princess Marie was born in Belgrade in 1932 and was the grand-daughter of Prince George Karagorgevic. Unfortunately there was no such princess, and it seems to follow that someone calling himself Count Kasa-Hunjadi invented a convenient grandmother in 2010, plus an exotic life and a series of husbands for her, including an Englishman called "Lord Alec Stratford Cunningham-Reid". This at least may refer to Captain Alec Stratford Cunningham-Reid, but unfortunately his two wives do not include any princesses;
the "Kasa-Hunyady" family history appears to be fictitious, although I have found one young man called Gabor Kasa-Hunyady, so the whole article may well be an elaborate hoax, built on feeding false information to Serbian and Hungarian web sites. Moonraker (talk) 10:25, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
