The Miloslavsky family (Russian: Милосла́вские) was a Russian noble family. The Miloslavskys are mostly known for Maria Miloslavskaya who was the first wife of Tsar Alexey Romanov.
History
According to the family's genealogy, Miloslavskys are descended from Miloslaw Sigismundowicz who moved to the Duchy of Moscow in the train of Princess Sophia Vitovtovna in 1390.[1]
According to the genealogical tale, Wienczyslaw and Miloslaw Zigmundowicz were the sons of Sigismund Korsak, a Lithuanian nobleman of the Korsak coat-of-arms, native of Czechia. He was the common ancestor of the Korsakov, Rymsky-Korsakov and Miloslavsky families.[1]
