Vera Figner was born on 7 July [O.S. 25 June] 1852, the oldest of six children of Nikolai Alexandrovich Figner, a retired army staff captain and his wife, the former Ekaterina Khristoforovna Kuprianova, both members of the hereditary Russian nobility.[1] Her maternal grandfather owned more than 17,000 acres of land, worked by serfs existing in a state of semi-slavery and the family retained two maids, who were also serfs, until the Emancipation of 1861.[2] Her father served in the state forestry service, resigning that post to become a local administrative functionary called a "peace mediator" in the years after emancipation.[3] She was the sister of Lidija Figner and of the famous Russian tenor Nikolai Figner.[citation needed]
