I don't understand the question.

Are you asking whether these Grand Princes had Russian wives? Or whether they were Russians themselves?

If latter, all of the Rurikid Grand Princes were descendants of Rurik (duh) by male line. As in, all of them up to Fyodor (the last one) were grand-grand....-grandsons of Rurik.

If you're asking whether they had Russian blood in them, then you have to look at who their mothers were, and as I said, they were either greek, nordic or slavic(ie Russian) most of time.
Rogneda (Vladimir the Great's wife) is a prime example.

Also, there were a metric fuckton of rurikids overall, I'm just focusing on the main line from Rurik to Fyodor. There were countless of others who held minor principalities and weren't as "important" as the main branch, and who probably just married the prettiest boyar girl they laid eyes upon, and practically all boyars were 100% russians.
