Tsarevich Simeon Alexeyevich of Russia

Tsarevich Simeon Alexeyevich (Russian: Симеон Алексеевич; 3 April 1665[1] - 18 June 1669[2][3]) was the fourth son of Tsar Alexis of Russia and Maria Miloslavskaya, brother of Tsar Feodor III of Russia and Tsar Ivan V of Russia and half-brother of Tsar Peter the Great.

In 1673, after his death, a pretender appeared at the Zaporizhian Sich, claiming to be Tsarevich Simeon. The pretender claimed that he had sought refuge with Stenka Razin after boyars had attempted to kill him.[4] The pretender was executed on 17 September 1674.[4]
