In 1888, she was transferred from Odessa to Sakhalin Island, from where the woman did not return, although she made attempts to escape. So in the series, they simply came up with the idea that she stayed with her daughter. She also had an ordinary appearance: "small (153 cm), thin, pockmarked face, a wart on her cheek, but lively intelligent eyes and charming manners."
It is unknown how the legendary thief met her death and where she is buried. The main version says that Sonka died of a cold on Sakhalin after an escape attempt in 1902 and was buried at the local cemetery in the Alexandrovsky post.
According to another, Sonka lived out her last days with her daughters and grandchildren in Moscow. This legend is probably believed by those who visit the grave and monument at the Vagankovsky cemetery, which allegedly belong to Sonka. The dilapidated memorial is covered with inscriptions-requests: young thieves ask Sonka for luck in "business".
