[Moved from]: Coat of Arms - Novicky family ?

Hello dear Members

Someone in my family who is looking for the heritage of the Novicky family found this Coat of Arms in an archive in Lviv. He said that the Novicky family was during the 13.,-17. century a powerful family in the Polish-Lituanian Commonwealth in the districts of later Galicia. When the russians invaded, they disappeared.

Does somebody know this Coat of Arms or the family this story is about?

Thank you a lot!

I never was in Poland before and I don't know polish history of surnames and their beginning. It may seems "completely ridiculous" to you, but for someone who has no contact with polish culture it is not.

But thank you anyway.
