Two Family Commanderies were created within the Strogonov family by Emperor Paul I. The first Commandery was granted to Count Pavel Alexandrovich (1772-1817) whose chart is given below. He had no male issue but his daughter, Natalya Pavlovna married a cousin Sergei Grigorievich Strogonov and their son, Alexander Sergeievich succeeded to the title.

The second Commandery was granted to Baron Alexander Sergeievich (1771-1815) who died without issue, his only daughter having predeceased him. Since it appears that no claim to the Commandership was ever made, it may be assumed that the Foundation Deed made no provision for any alternative line to succeed him.

Unless the Foundation Deeds state otherwise, it may be assumed that both Commanderies are now extinct.
