z_darius 14 | 3,968 19 Apr 2008 / #3The story says the family line started in some remote times, with the first actual record from 975 AD, but I was unable to trace actual bloodlines and assign names to them to any period before the 15th century. Some of the members of this line were Count Stanisław Antoni Poniatowski and Tadeusz Boy-Żeleński.
