He was born about 1185-6 to
Vsyevolod III Yur'yevich Bol'shoye Gnezdo, great
prince of Vladimir and Vsyevolod's first wife, Maria Shvarnovna, Ossetian
princess. He was prince of Novgorod in 1206-07, then
appanage prince of Rostov about 1207, and then grand prince of Vladimir from
1216 to his death in 1218. He married the daughter, probably Agraf'yea,
Mstislavna Romanovna Starii, daughter of Mstislav
III, great prince of Kyiv. He is shown on this chart
with his ancestors and on this familychart.
Their sons were Vsyevolod, appanage prince of
Yaroslavl; Vasil'ko, appanage prince of Rostov;
and Vladimir, appanage prince of Uglich. After his
father died, Konstantin struggled with his brothers over the throne of
Vladimir. Vladimir's line held Uglich for two generations. Vsyevolod's line
held Yaroslavl for several generations only before passing in an unusual way
through the female line. But Vasil'ko's family held both Rostov and Beloozero
until the end of the independent princedoms.
