Introduction
--- When I began my second or third ‘Young Constantinovich’ Episodical Biography I realised how repetitive the first part would be. Since their childhood and adolescence the first batch of the young Constantinovich lived the same life. I decided to use the identical text for the earlier part of the lives of Ioann, Gabriel, Tatiana, Constantine, Oleg and Igor. Even when the events described did not concern the subject of the biography they somehow related to all the others, so tightly knit was family life.
"Kostya" - Grand Duke Constantine Constantinovich, a poet and man respected and loved by all the family, married in 1884 his second cousin "Mavra" - Elizabeth Mavrikievna, aged 19, Princess of Sachsen-Altenburg.
"Mavra" was a typical German ‘hausfrau’, a very plain, very kind, very simple and very homely woman, but very conscious of her husband's rank in the Imperial Family. In the first nine years of married life, the prolific Grand Duchess produced six children and then after an interval of another nine years, had three more in three years. The couple's fourth child and third son was born at St. Petersburg on January 1, 1891 n .st. and was named Constantine, as his father and grandfather. (HP)
--- In the chronological listing of events in the following chapters, important family occasions such as weddings and funerals are always noted. With births of the closest relatives, these were all occasions for visiting one's relatives. Are also registered family events occurring in childhood or adolescence since children were often taken along by their parents to meet relatives, as occasions to arrange suitable marriages and make friends of their age.
--- The immediate family events and those of the Emperor's family are generally mentioned after 1895, that is as soon Prince Constantine Constantinovich is 4. Births, marriages and deaths of relatives are mentioned beginning from 1906 on, when occurring in Russia and from 1911 on, when occurring abroad.
