Brief note

Dmitry — the name in the signature on two front letters inserted in the notebook (leaves 103 and 104).

What is knownSignature “Dmitry”; address to parents (and to “little sister Tanya” in letter 103)
Surnamenot established
Family linkexact relationship not yet established

What not to do

  • Do not equate with Timosha (letters 105–106 )
  • Do not identify with Timofey Petrovich Samsonov (the father)
  • Do not merge with other “Dmitrys” in the archive without separate evidence

Unknown. The letters address “dear parents” / “parents and little sister Tanya” in the family notebook pack — that is not enough to call the author a relative.
