Mikhail Vasilyevich Alekseyev or Mikhail Vasilyevich Alekseev Михаил Васильевич Алексеев born O.S. 3 November 1857 N.S. 15 November 1857 Vyazma, Vyazemsky District, Smolensk Oblast, Russian Federation (then Smolensk Governorate of the Russian Empire) died O.S. 25 September 1918 N.S. 8 October 1918 Krasnodar, Gorod Krasnodar, Krasnodar Krai, Russian Federation (then Yekaterinodar, Russian Empire).
Parents: Vasilij Alekseevich Alekseyev Василий Алексеевич Алексеев (?-?) and Nadezhda Ivanovna Alekseyeva née Galakhova Надежда Ивановна Алексеева (Галахова) (?-?)
Sisters: Maria Vasilievna Alekseyeva Мария Васильевна Алексеева (1864-?)
Olga Vasilevna Mitropolskij née Alekseyeva Ольга Васильевна Митропольская (Алексеева)
Wife: Anna Nicolaevna Alekseyeva née Pirotskaya Анна Николаевна Алексеева (Пироцкая) (1872-1960)
Children:
Nikolay Mikhailovich Alekseyev Николай Михайлович Алексеев (1891-1960)
Klavdiya Mihailovna Krupina née Alekseyeva "Claudia" Клавдия Михайловна Крупина (Алексеева) (1892-c.1926)
Vera Mikhailovna Borel née Alekseyeva Вера Михайловна Борель (Алексеева) (1899-1992).
In the Russo-Japanese War, in October 1904 Alekseyev was appointed Quartermaster General of the Russian 3rd Manchurian Army. During the war he was awarded a gold sword, the Order of St. Stanislav, and the Order of St. Anne.
After the war, he became first senior quartermaster of the General Staff’s main directorate, while maintaining his position as a professor at the General Staff Academy.
In 1908 he was made Chief of Staff of the Kiev military district and promoted to lieutenant general.
In 1912 Alekseyev was given command of the 13th Army Corps.
He was an Imperial Russian Army general during WW1 and the Russian Civil War. Between 1915 and 1917 he served as Tsar Nicholas II's Chief of Staff of the Stavka, and after the February Revolution, was its commander-in-chief under the Russian Provisional Government from March to May 1917. He later played a principal role in founding the Volunteer Army in the Russian Civil War and died in 1918 of heart failure while fighting the Bolsheviks in the Volga region.
He was first buried in the crypt of St. Catherine's Cathedral Свято-Екатерининский собор, Yekaterinodar.
When the White troops retreated in early 1920, the remains were moved at his widow's request and taken to Belgrade, Serbia by relatives and colleagues who were afraid of the desecration of his grave by the Bolsheviks. During the years of communist rule, in order to avoid the destruction of the grave of the ancestor and leader of the White cause, the gravestone on his grave was replaced by another, on which only two laconic words were written: "Warrior Michael".
In 2010, through the efforts of the St. Petersburg public organization “Beloye Delo”, Alekseyev's grave was supplemented with a new stone, “from the Russian people in the year of the 90th anniversary of the end of the White Struggle in the South of Russia” on which his full name is inscribed and his contributions to Russia are listed.
On the day of the installation of the stone, 12 September 2010, a wreath was laid on the grave with the inscription «Не видели, но знали и любили» “We did not see him, but knew and loved him”.
