Popova's disjointed memoirs "Popovskaia khronika" discuss her family and ancestors, artistic and cultural life in pre-revolutionary Moscow, and the emigration in France. Among the people who appear in these memors are Sergei Diagilev, Savva Mamontov, Maksim Gorky, Serafim Sud'binin, Mikhail Larionov, and Nataliia Goncharova. Also included is a typescript biography (29 p.) of her cousin, Pavel S. Popov (1892-1964), by an unidentified Soviet author. Popov, who married a granddaughter of Lev Tolstoi, was the author of "Istoriia logiki novogo vremeni" (1960), and taught philosophy at Moscow University. This manuscript touches on his family, education, professional career in the Soviet Union, and, in great detail, his family troubles in the last years of his life.
