Naryshkin family

Russian noble family

The House of Naryshkin is a noble Russian boyar family, going back to a certain Mordko Kurbat Naryshko, who moved to Moscow in the 15th century. It became allied to the ruling house in 1671 when the great beauty Natalya Naryshkina married Alexis of Russia, later becoming the mother of Peter the Great. The Naryshkin family was persecuted under the regency of Tsarevna Sophia Alekseyevna of Russia, but were then highly favoured by Peter and his descendants and played a major part in Russian life.
