OMG, Shellie! Yes, I am a member but I don't follow Geni.com that closely. It never even occurred to me to look there! I'm going to take a peak right now.

Thanks!

I don't know if you have to be a member to view it.

Hi Shellie,
Thanks for the information on the book. Although I have no understanding of the Polish language, I did find the name "Lanckoronski" along with my family's names "Osiecka" and "Nowak". I have to somehow try to translate the contents.
I never lose interest in tracing my family's roots. Just when I think I've reached a stone wall some new information appears.
I hope you're research is going well.
Thanks for thinking of me!
Lisa

Hi Lisa,
Today I found an interesting book at the Podkarpacka Digital Library:
Rok 1846 : kronika dworów szlacheckich zebrana na pięćdziesięcioletnią rocznicę smutnych wypadków lutego

Google translation is a little rough, but maybe some of our Polish speakers can comment on the correct title:
Year 1846: chronicle of noble mansions collected at the fiftieth anniversary of the sad accident in February

This book relates to the peasant uprising in 1846.

The library's description of the book:
Includes inventory, however inaccurate, victims of the massacre in 1846, the village, a list of names.

There is an index of names and index of villages at the back of this book. You will be interested to learn that among many names and locations, the book includes:

Luslawice
Zakliczyn
Count Lancronski

You can access the book here:

Thanks so much, Shellie! There's so little information out there on the Lanckoronskis. I find it interesting that Podole is near Luslawice...

I'm delighted that you passed this on to me. I still have a strong hunch that my great-great grandmother worked for this family. As always, your help is appreciated : )

You are welcome! I always watch for info about Luslawice and the Lanckoronski family. I also find it interesting that they were in Podole. There are several places named Podole in Poland, but the one I'm referring to is right near Luslawice. If you recall Podole was one of the churches I visited in Poland and I recently found out that my grandfather's older brother and sister were baptized there!

You can see photos of the church at: http://forum.polishorigins.com/viewtopic.php?t=343&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

Lisa,
This came from a document online but there is no info about who wrote it. I might be info from the book: The Borderlands rediscovered. The common heritage of Poland and Ukraine, but I'm not sure.

Here is the section about the Lanckoronski family:

Zadora – the coat of arms of the Lanckoroński family
The Zadora Coat of Arms, also called the Flames or the Blaze, is represented by a silver lion’s head turned to the right issuing five flames against a blue background. One of the noble families who used this coat of arms was the Lanckoroński family, who had risen from the ranks of the regular knighthood through the centuries, building the position of their family mainly by serving the Polish kings, through marriage, good husbandry and the vast possessions that were in their hands.

Over the years the Lanckoroński family split into four genealogical lines. Two of them, the Wodzisław and Kurozwęki lines, had estates in Małopolska, and their most important town was Wodzisław, north of Kraków. The representatives of the Jagielnica and Mielnica lines settled in Podole and Jagielnica. Mielnica Podolska became the centre of the family’s wealth.

The Lanckorońskis often resided in Kamieniec as starostas, voivodes and bishops. In every century there have been outstanding individuals from the Lanckoroński family distinguished for their patriotism and engagement in the service of their country. Among the most famous and distinguished representatives of the family in the Polish Republic are: Zbigniew of Brzezie, Grand Marshal of the Crown (15th century), Stanisław Lanckoroński, Field Hetman of the Crown (17th century), Maciej Lanckoroński, the Castellan of Kiev (18th century), Duke Karol Lanckoroński, collector, art expert (19th century), and his daughter Prof. Karolina Lanckorońska.

BTW- Podole is just a few miles from Luslawice

Hi Lisa,

Most probably you have already checked wikipedia in your Karol Lankoronski search, but just in case here is link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karol_Lanckoro%C5%84ski where you can find a little about him in English.

Here: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lus%C5%82awice (click the first Lusławice) you will find a little more information about Lusławice, and especially about the Estate there. Unfortunately, this is in Polish only. You can use google translate http://translate.google.com/?hl=en# to translate it and at least get a clue of the text, or find someone to translate it for you from Polish into English (You can, for example, try to find someone at our partner's site here: http://www.genealogyfreelancers.com/ ).

Together with Shellie we have found a few graves of Osiecki when we visited Luslawice a few days ago on day 6 (blog entry: http://blog.polishorigins.com/2009/07/16/16-shellies-tour-to-ancestral-places-day-6/ ). I will send you four pictures of found graves to your Private Message.

Zenon,

Thanks for the information regarding the estate in Luslawice.

I have been following Shellie's blog and I am anxiously awaiting future posts from her!

If anyone has information on the estate during the 19th century, or if anyone has any information on Count Karol Lanckoronski and his family and is willing to pass it along to me, it would be greatly appreciated.

Lisa : )

Lisa,

A few weeks ago I contacted the Regional Center of Tourism and Cultural Heritage in Zakliczyn with a question about historical materials for Shellie's genealogy search (click here for Shellie's Family History and Tour to Ancestral Places in our Blog)

They replied me very quickly. Unfortunately, they don't have any records which may relate to genealogy search in Luslawice. However, they mentioned me that today the estate and manor is owned by well-known Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki

According to Geographical Dictionary of Polish Kingdom in 16th century the estate was owned by nobleman Taszycki who had as a guest for many years Fausto Paolo Sozzini, also known as Faustus Socinus or Faust Socyn (Polish) an Italian teologian. (Click here for more information about him: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fausto_Paolo_Sozzini )

In 19th century the estate belonged to Cardinal Lanckoroński and neighboring Lusławiczki to a landlord Gostkowski. Together with Shellie and Jerry we will be visiting Lusławice in a few days so follow our reports in Blog http://blog.polishorigins.com/

I think that you may be also interested in today's blog post by Shellie entitled 'Lusławice, my grandfathers birthplace' http://blog.polishorigins.com/2009/07/04/shellies-family-history-and-tour-to-ancestral-places-luslawice-my-grandfathers-birthplace/ .

I was always told that my great-great grandmother worked as a servant at a large estate in/around Luslawice in the 1860's. Does anyone have any information regarding this estate, the owners, etc.?

Thanks

Lisa
