Moscow is the main stage of the Samsonov–Krivoshein family chronicle: childhood, work, war, memory.
Below — seven points from Tatyana Timofeevna’s notebook.
Coordinates are modern (OSM); meaning comes from the manuscript.

1. 2nd Brestskaya — mother’s childhood home
“Two rooms on the ground floor… near Belorussky station. The house still stands.”
2. Belorussky station → Lubyanka
Mother ran to work from Belorussky to the Lubyanka: no trams, winter, sled with potatoes.
3. Vozdvizhenka — 4th House of Soviets
Childhood flat: 4th floor, five rooms; same building as Kalinin’s reception.
4. Alexandrovsky Garden and the Kremlin
Walks in the garden; father sometimes took them into the Kremlin — “he had access.”
5. The “little dead end” by the Pushkin Museum
Winter sleds after mother’s work — the lane behind the museum.
6. Novodevichy
Timofey Petrovich (1955) and Eva Konstantinovna (1981) are buried here.
7. Father’s birthplace — Mihăileni (Bessarabia)
The chart says T. P. Samsonov was born in Bessarabia, village Mikhailyany.
Map point: modern Mihăileni (Moldova); may need document checks.
