I wrote an email to the city archives in Geesthacht, where Nikolaj died. I hope, he is the right one, because it is possible to find more about his parents and about his own family, too.
21. Muromskij Infantry Regiment in 1869 was stationed?

In 1863/1864 this regiment was in Poland. It was used for suppression of the uprising. Unfortunately I cannot find any information about 1869. It seems to me that in 1969 it should be stayed in Murom, but I am not sure.

There is an interesting information, at least for me it is new about Nikolay von Gunnius.
1. With pencil edits: Nikolay is the son of hereditary nobility at Estlyandskaya Gugernia (Governorate of Estonia). 2. His service in OKPS starts in 1902 and in 1909 in Siberia region. In addition he was sent to Harbin Police Dept. in 1913!!!!! Look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harbin_Russians
About hereditary nobility. In Russian Historical Archive (St. Petersburg) two files of Gunnius are located. fond 1343 opis 19 files 5432, 5433. and in fond 1343 opis 35 file 6840 is also about Gunnius. The last one is mos probably is a short file.
The father of Nikolay was born in Haapsalu / Estonia. In 1854 he went to Poland and all the children were born there. In 1890 he went back to Estonia and died in August. All the sons were in the army.
The Hunnius (Gunnius) family in St. Petersburg are relatives of Ewald Hunnius, because Ewald had got 15 brothers and sisters. But I'm only researching for the family of Ewald. Because I'm still searching for the Krestovozdivzhenskij family. Last week I informed me of options of the search in the Russian Historical Archive in St. Petersburg
Typically in such type of archive files listed all family members.
Did i told you that there is a file of Krestovozdvizhenskij family got hereditary nobility? Russian State Historical Archive fond 1343 opis 36 file 12785. See attached image
It is a possibility! I think about an enquiry to the Historical State Archive, but I didn't found any payment terms and also for foreign person it is very difficult.
I'm interested in these two persons. What is your price? It is important!
