Roger-I too am looking for info regarding Russians in Switzerland, although for a different reason. My g-g-grandmother (ARNET) supposedly left (family lore says from Geneva, but I'm leaning to Luzern) with a Russian family (I'm guessing around 1880) to be their governess. She ended up in Mariupol Ukraine so I suppose that is where or near where she went with the family. From what I understand, Switz. was a favorite spot for the well to do Russians to take holiday especially during the 1800's. Have you had any luck in your searching. Hope to hear from you.
