A statement accepting Vladimir as head of the House was signed in October 1938 by the five most senior Romanovs.<ref>These were Grand Duke Boris, Grand Duke Andrew, Grand Duke Dmitry, Prince Vsevelod, and Prince Gavriel (5th in line). See Brien Horan, "[https://www.russianlegitimist.org/russian-imperial-succession The Russian Imperial Succession]."</ref> When Vladimir died in 1992, Maria claimed the right to succeed as the only child of the last male Romanov dynast. ''Almanach de Gotha'' has refused to recognize this claim even though no other candidate is genealogically plausible.<ref>''Gotha'' describes Vladimir as, "the last Head of the Imperial House of Russia."
