Prince Of Beloozero
The Prince of Beloozero was the ''kniaz'', the ruler or sub-ruler, of the Principality of Beloozero, a lordship which lasted over two centuries in the north of what is now European Russia. Before 1238, it formed part of the principality of Rostov, which also included the lands around Yaroslavl, Uglich and Ustyug. It was detachted from Rostov in 1238 when, following the death of Vasilko Konstantinovich, Prince of Rostov, his younger son Gleb Vasilkovich took Beloozero while his older son Boris Vasil'kovich became his successor at Rostov. The princedom gave rise to the princely nobility surname of Belozersky (Белозе́рский), literally meaning "of Belo Ozero" (of White Lake). Subsequently, the only surviving branch of this Russian Princely family (meaning direct male descendants) are the Princes Belosselsky-Belozersky. Emperor Paul I of Russia gave this honor to Alexander Mikhailovich Belosselsky-Belozersky and his descendants. List of princes of Beloozero * Gleb Vas ...

Belosselsky-Belozersky Family
The Belosselsky-Belozersky princely and Rurikid family is an aristocratic Russian family that descends in a direct male line from the Earliest Kievan Rus rulers and later of the medieval sovereigns of the Principality of Beloozero. Origins The family of Belosselsky-Belozersky claims the descendance directly from the first Russian Princes, from the "Kiev Rus" period and specifically from Prince Rurik (of Swedish roots), who created their seat in Kiev around the years 870–890. The family traces its patrimonic, father-to-son roots throughout the ruling houses of Russia until the mid 16th century, to Yuri Dolgoruky (founder of Moscow) and his grandsons who were grand-dukes/princes of Kiev as well as of Vladimir-Suzdal principality. After the ascendance of Ivan Kalita ("Moneybags") and the Romanov dynasty, the family were rulers of the Belozersk (White Lake) principality, north of Moscow. Gleb Vassilkovich was the first Belozersky prince to rule there. While on one of the require ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
