  2. Father: PVL s.a. 1103.[↑]
  3. Mother: Conjectural based upon a child cited in PVL, s.a. 1103.[↑]
  4. Kniaz′ of Polotsk: Vseslav Briacheslavich dies in 1101, and it is assumed that David inherits, though he is mentioned as Kniaz′ until 1103. PVL s.a. 1103.; Hypatian Chronicle, s.a. 1128.; Laurentian Chronicle, s.a. 1127.; Voskresenskaia Chronicle, s.a. 1127.[↑]

  6. Marriage to unknown: Her existence is conjectural based upon the children of David cited in numerous places, including Laurentian Chronicle, s.a. 1127.[↑]
