The Chebda Family (Stary Koń coat of arms), Heir to Tropie and Tęgoborze. On the History of the Knightly Family from Lesser Poland (14th and 16th centuries)

Sławomir Wróblewski

Abstract

The article presents the Chebda family (Stary Koń coat of arms), who dwelled since the end of 14th century in the Northern parts of Sądecczyzna, and till this day has stayed rather out of focus to researchers and historians, yet illustrated as an interesting example of the knightly family from the area of Lesser Poland. The author takes up the following issues: the genealogy of the Chebda family, their property, and an issue of obtaining estate on the territory of Sądecczyzna in particular, as well as patronage. Apart from detailed findings, the quoted and analyzed sources illustrating the abovementioned issues allow for presenting a general picture of the family discussed in the article. Initially, a certain standard example of accomplishing particular medieval knightly purposes comes to focus, that is a formation of an estate complex, possession of a fortified residence, and finally the patronage of churches. After that time, this well‑ off knightly family — the lesser nobility typical of the old Republic of Poland — suffers from fragmentation and impoverishment.
