Question about Russian-German connection.
My late grandfather's name was Heinrich Cornelius, but on his passport from Russia, he's listed as Gregory Korneevitch. I've studied Russian, so I know that Heinrich cannot easily be spelled in the Russian alphabet, but does anyone know if there's a connection between Gregory and Henry? Or why he may have had to use that name?
