I think you have seen Aleksandrs Krilovs' grave in Gaujiena on Myheritage.com
-----
As you see, all men's names have S ending. That's because all masculine nouns should have S ending in the nominative singular in Lettish. So Aleksander would have been Aleksandrs in Latvia.

I was wondering about your DNA matches
What results do you get when you put in location matches ?

I.m also researching Latvian relatives .
If the tree owners know the town of their ancestors origins it could help you with some of your guesses.

I have now traced american descendants of great great grandfather ....sometimes they know exact birth town of their ancestors sometimmes admin district Riga often they have Russia not Latvia as country of origin and 2 had  grandparents place of birth as england because thsts what was on immigration record tho actually they were born in Courland Latvia.

If you can identify potential latvian.great grandparents and their siblings from other peoples trees maybe you will be able to work out who Alexander Krylov was and where he went If he was an army deserter that would be a good reason to hide identity .Good luck ...dont give up things turn up uexpectedly ....
Ps have either of your parents had dna tests ....i found results from.my mothets dna which did not show up in mine .

I have Latvian, German (4.2 generation), Finnish, Russian.... you should join the facebook groups Latvian genealogy and Latvian dna. The dna group runs a spreadsheet matching Gedmatch numbers to each other. No I cant identify great grandparents through dna yet but hopefully one day I can. As previous posts have said, he was a naval captain. Parents refused dna tests, thanks.

Latvian cemetery database
https://www.cemety.lv/public/deceaseds?utf8=✓&q=Krilov&button=&region=&cemetery=
I have put Krilovs, Krilov and Крылов into searhbox to get more results.

Jaunlatgale seems to be not included cos it was ceded to Pskov region in 1944.
