Count & Countess Lanckoronski/Great Grandfather's Military Service

I have two questions:

Can anyone tell me something about Count & Countess Lanckoronski and their children? My great-great grandmother might have worked on their estate in the Luslawice area and I'm interested in knowing all I can about them.

My great-grandfather was born in 1870 in Luslawice. He never served in the military. We, his descendants, find it odd that he didn't serve. What would the possible reasons be for not having to serve?

Thanks!

Thank you, Eagle 20, for your reply. It was helpful : )

If there is anyone who can help me with my question about my great-grandfather's lack of military service (during the late 1800s/early 1900s), it would be greatly appreciated.

Speaking of books, the daughter, Karolina Lanckorońska wrote a book:

"Those who Trespass Against us - One woman's war against the Nazis"

It describes her time in Lwów under the Soviets, then her escape to Kraków were she was arrested and finally sent to Ravensbruck concentration camp.
