Mother   Rogneda of Polotsk1 b. circa 960, d. circa 1002

Birth* circa 981 Izyaslav was born circa 981.1 
(Witness) !AInfoNew Tho' Rogneda had not wanted to marry Vladimir she had 5 children by him in about 10 years. She may have forgiven him for having killed her father and brothers but she could not abide by his unfaithfulness. When Rogenda was about 22 years old, and son Izyaslav was about 7 she had had enough. While Vladimir was sleeping she took his knife and drove it into his heart. But he lived!!!! Rogneda expected to pay the penalty of death for murder but Vladimir chose a worse sentence. She should never see her children again. Son Izyaslav put up such a real fuss that he was deported with her to a "deaf" (that is what the translation from the Russian says!!) place at the source of the Svislock river.1 
Note* He was sent about in 988 by Vladimir, along with his mother, to live in and rule Polotsk. His son, Bryachislav, succeeded him, founding the only ruling house not descended from Yaroslav I Vladimirovich. His other son, Vsyeslav, died young. He died in.1 
Death* 1001 In 1001.1
