Yevdokiya Lukianovna Streshneva (Евдокия Лукьяновна Стрешнёва in Russian ) ( 1608 - August 18 , 1645 ) was the second wife of Mikhail I . She was a daughter of a nobleman Lukian Stepanovich Streshnev from Mozhaysk . Yevdokiya Streshneva was chosen by the tsar from several fair noble maidens and married him on February 5 , 1626 . She gave birth to 10 children, six of whom died during her life. Yevdokiya is known to have been in a difficult situation at the royal court. It appears that the Tsar itsa totally depended on her Mother-in-law Marfa Ivanovna, whose firm grip had been felt in their everyday life. Both of them had the same Confessor and Diak . Marfa Ivanovna accompanied her daughter-in-law during all of her visits to monasteries and other places. She also chose tutors for her grandchildren. It also appears that Eudoxia Streshneva had no influence over Mikhail I even after the death of Marfa Ivanovna. Yevdokiya Streshneva died five weeks after her husband. |
