Post subject: Estate in Luslawice
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

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,
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

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!

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:

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

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!
