Dmitri Semyonovich Sokira Zubrevitsky Slutsky was born 1392 to Semyon Dmitriyevich Drutsky (c1365-c1425) and died 1445 of unspecified causes.
Dmitri Semyonovich, Prince Zubrevitsky, nicknamed "Sokira" (c1292-c1445) - a Russian-Lithuanian prince from the Drutsky family, the "special" Prince Zubrevitsky, the administrator of the Ostra district
Born about 1292, one of the six sons of Prince Semyon Dmitriyevich Drutsky. He got a small appanage principality with its center in Zubrevichy. Probably due to a successful marriage at Sofia from the house of Koriatovichy[1] significantly expanded his possessions. From 1426 [2]- the administrator of the Ostra district of the Kiev principality. In 1427 he received from the King additional awards, apparently, in particular, thanks to the still more successful marriage of his sisters.
Dmitri Semyonivich was a companion of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania, Vytautas and Svidrigaila. He played an important role in the conflict between Svidrigaila and Wladyslaw II Jagiellon for Podolia, which led to civil war. On the side of the Grand Duchy of Rus' he took part in the Battle of Oshmyany (8 December1432), where, along with his brother Vasili Krasnyi, he was captured by Sigismund Keistutovich. Soon Dmitri Semyonovich was released, but his estates (as well as the estates of other supporters of Svidrigaila) were probably confiscated.[3]
After the murder of Sigismund Keistutovich on 20 March 1440, the new Grand Duke of Lithuania, 13-year-old Casimir Jagiellon, returned the property to the disgraced feudal lords. It is not known if Dmitri Semyonovich was among the "lucky ones"? It was then that, while he was still not very old man in his 40s, he wrote a will and died, leaving as successor his only daughter Marina, the wife of Semyon Semyonovich Trabsky from the Golshansky family.
It is known that after the death of Dmitri Semyonovich, the Osterchyna, Olelekovich and Zvyagilsky families took possession of it, and Marina became his patriot in the affection of the cousin only in 1481.
Dmitry Sokir's cousin, Sophia Golshanskaya, who was raised at his father's house, became the Polish queen (from 1422 - the fourth wife of Wladyslaw II Jagiellon) and the founder of the Jagiellonian dynasty, as well as the initiator of the first translation of the Bible into Polish.
Dmitri Semyonovich is sometimes considered to be the ancestor of several branches of the Druzhky Prince like the - Druzhky-Zubrevitsky or Sokir-Zubrevitsky. However, this raises doubts as he had only a daughter Marina, and no male descendants.
