Dmitry Dmitriyevich Smyshlyayev was born in Perm, on the March 5, 1828, in the family of Dmitry Yemelyanovich Smyshlyayev, merchant of the 1st guild and mayor of Perm in 1823—1826. In 1844 he left the grammar-school and had been assisting his father with commerce until 1857. Then he turned to social and educational activity and study of the local history.

In 1858—1860 Smyshlyayev published "The Perm Anthology" (Russian: "Пермский сборник"), which was devoted to history, ethnography and statistics of Perm Governorate.[2]
In 1870—1879 Smyshlyayev was a chairman of Governorate Executive Board. He brought up the problems of national education, medicine and improvements of social welfare. In 1872 he founded the journal "Anthology of Perm Zemstvo" (Russian: "Сборник Пермского земства"). He had been editing it until 1878 and published 34 issues. Later he edited the unofficial part of "Perm Governorate News".[1][2]
