For the first time it was established the date and place of his birth – March 18 (30), 1889, Chisinau, Russian Empire (now the capital of the Republic of Moldova); his social origin was from the burghers of the city of Balty (then a district town of the Podolsk province of the Russian Empire; now a city in the Podolsk region of the Odesa region of Ukraine); place and years of his secondary education – 2nd Chisinau Men's Gymnasium (1898–1906).
