He was the son of Vsyevolod Konstantinovich, appanage prince of Yaroslavl
and Marina Ol'govna. He was appanage prince of Yaroslavl 1238-49). He married
in 1242 with Ksyenia. Their son was Vasilii, prince of
Yaroslavl and their daughter was Maria. They are shown on this family
chart.
When Vasilii died in 1249 his daughter, Maria, was already betrothed to
Fedor Rostislavich Chernii, appanage prince of
Mozhaisk, of the princes of Smolensk. Both Maria and Vasilii Vasil'yevich were
very young. Then after Vasilii's brother, Konstantin, died without heirs, the
conference of princes at Vladimir decided to confer Yaroslavl on Maria's
husband before the wedding. Thus Yaroslavl passed from the house of the
Vsyevolodovichi to that of the Rostislavichi. See House
of Yaroslavl.
