He ended up in an orphanage because his father was killed in 1812 and his mother, Maria Gerassimovna, could not afford to keep him.[1] He took his surname to honour a benefactor. He attended university in Moscow where he studied a new course of geology.<br />In 1863 he led the Society of Devotees of Natural Science, Anthropology, and Ethnography. Together with other leading members of the society discussed having a museum. There first move in this direction was to establish a library. In 1871 Moscow council set aside half a million roubles to create a museum. A committee was formed with Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolayevich as honorary chair. The formation of a museum was timely as Peter the Great's 200th anniversary would inspire an exhibition that would be used to launch the new Polytechnic Museum.[2]<br />He travelled extensively around the growing Russian empire writing about people and rocks.[1]<br />He died in 1884 when August Yulevich Davidov became president of the Society of Devotees of Natural Science, Anthropology, and Ethnography.<br />
