Morganatic branches of the Russian Imperial Family
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is currently only one male-line descendant of any Emperor of Russia remaining who regards herself entitled to the title Grand Duke/Duchess of Russia, and that is Maria Vladimirovna, daughter of the late Vladimir Kirillovich of Russia, the only son of Grand Duke Cyril Vladimirovich of Russia, the "emperor in exile". However, there are a number of morganatic branches of the family remaining that are also male-line descendants of Russian Emperors. This article lists them all by the Emperor from which they are descended, along with a family tree.
In the family trees, a ≈ sign represents a union causing an illegitimate child.
