Alexander von Middendorff
Alexander Theodor von Middendorff () (18 August 1815 – 24 January 1894) was a Russian zoologist and explorer.
== Early life ==
Middendorff's mother Sophia Johanson (1782–1868) was the daughter of an Estonian farmer who had been sent to Saint Petersburg for education by her parents. There she met with the future director of the St. Petersburg Pedagogical Institute, Theodor Johann von Middendorff (1776–1856), whose father was a Baltic German pastor in Karuse, Estonia. As the two young people came from different social ranks and were unable to marry each other, their daughter Anette (b. 1809) and son Alexander were born out of wedlock. Alexander was born on 18 August 1815, but could not be baptized until six months later in the Estonian Lutheran Congregation of St. Petersburg as the German Lutheran Congregation of St. Petersburg had not agreed to perform the baptism. In the accompanying paperwork, Middendorff's parents registered themselves as a married couple. In order to escape the attention of the public, the mother and son returned to Estonia where they settled at the Pööravere Mansion. Only in 1824, when the young Middendorff was ready to go to school, was his status legitimized when his parents finally married.〔(Academic Middendorff and Estonians. ) Eesti Ekspress., 08.29.2005 (''in Estonian'')〕 (Note: Although his father Theodor was Baltic German, Middendorff's middle name is sometimes spelled as "Theodorowitsch",〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ipni.org/ipni/idAuthorSearch.do?id=6445-1 )〕 a German corruption of the Russian patronymic Федорович (Fyodorovich); "-ovich" meaning "the son of" the person (father) whose name precedes it.)
