I believe that not all the members of the Romanov family were killed, but only the emperor and his immediate family...

Not me,the dna testing that was carried out on the remains of the Romanov family was 100% certain that the Bolsheviks had murdered the whole family.

The evidence is that the order came from Moscow, andf therefore from Lenin. This is an extremely complex subject. We can't give you all of the information and arguments here. You need to get to libraries and start reading serious books. One reason for killing them, as Leon Trotsky said later in his memoirs, was "The severity of this summary justice showed the world that we would fight on mercilessly, stopping at nothing. The execution of the Tsar's family was needed not only in order to frighten, horrify, and dishearten the enemy, but also in order to shake up our own ranks to show that there was no turning back, that ahead lay either complete victory or complete ruin ... This Lenin sensed well."

DNA testing has been carried out on all the bodies found which proved that they were all members of the family. Also, there have been many claims by women that they are Anastasia & these have all been proved to be false.
While it would be quite a romantic story if one or more of them had escaped unfortunately they didn't. All died.

They were all killed;this was confirmed several years ago.All the family's remains were identified,using the DNA of Prince Philip,Duke of Edinburgh,a descendant of the Romanovs.

No they were not all killed. Rory Emerald is a direct descendant and will reclaim the throne in due time. Details are being kept hush hush as he doesn't want Putin sending out another hit team!

I'm sure that the Tsar's immediate family were murdered, and many of his relations, but others in the family (such as the Dowager Tsaritsa) escaped to Europe.

well 2 of the bodies where missing when they found the grave. (the bodies missing were believed to be those of Anastasia and Alexei) and eye witnesses said not all of them died from the gun shots so there was a chance Anastasia could have escaped.

I find it difficult to believe that the assassins would have left any of them alive. But there has been so much speculation about Anastasia and Alexei that you do have to wonder...
Ultimately though, I think they probably all were killed. :(
