At
the beginning a famous
Michno
Konstantynowicz / Miknos Konstantinoviciaus
received
the big estate, an arable ground and forested land from the king
Sigismund Augustus on
04
January 1554
the
farmland was in the Merkine = Merecz area (the
Troki district),
beside the Niemen river (Neman
or Nemunas) by
the Merkys = Mereczanka river, and the same (as
early as
1552
in the
Troki district,
too)
possessed a property
Zaleskowszczyzna
near
by the rivers Solcza (or Salcia) and
Wisincza (= Wisincia) -
49 km on N-W-N of Lida - south of the Merkys river.
Next
Mikolay
Pohosha Konstantynowicz has
got a privilege handed over to him by the king
Vladislav IV Vasa on
07 March 1643
and
Bonifacy
1st Konstantynowicz derived
from named Mikolay.
The
Mscislau branch
come
from Dominik
and
his brothers; my family from the Mscislau area derived from - according
to the oral tale - a region by Mereczanka river
(= Merkys river),
then from
Michno Konstantynowicz / Miknos Konstantinoviciaus with the Fox proper
coat of arms, where the same possessed forest (1554)
and the
property of Zaleskowszczyzna
(1552) but
we weren't told that the Konstantynowicz family derived from Toloczki;
the same Michno = Miknos Konstantinoviciaus was put down in judicial
documents of the Troki district in 1552. I
don't know doubtless if Michno = Miknos Konstantinoviciaus was from the
Czyz family
as Leszczyc suggested
in 1908 and whether he was born c. 1530
near
to Lida or near to Hrodna? Searching for evidences last at present. I
don't know surely if Michno was stripped of the assets by his sister in
1547. All proofs show the Troki
district by the Mereczanka river as the nest of our beginning and
never point to the Hrodna district.
All descendants with the
Fox proper coat of arms only (and
probably with Bowel(s),
Three Crosses and Radwan armorial bearings, too)
and with
our Konstantynowicz surname come from the above Michno Konstantynowicz /
Miknos Konstantinoviciaus and
out of THE BUDSLAU
BRANCH, maybe THE HRODNA
BRANCHES, THE BRANCH OF THE
IRKUTSK
GOVERNMENT, from THE MINSK
GOVERNMENT BRANCHES, THE MSCISLAU
BRANCH, THE KAUNAS
BRANCHES, VOLHYNIA
branches (e.g.
Oknin Wielki or
Okniny, Okniki, Oleniny near by
Horynia river and close to small villages: Kwarczowka, Horynka,
Kuszlin, Podhajczyki, Jankowce, Kadzajowka, Wierzbica, Maniow,
Kotiuzynce, Chwedkowce, Czajczynce and others, in 1876)
and also THE KAZLOUSCYNA
BRANCH.
The Konstantynowicz family
from eastern Belarus (Antoni

my lineage.
1772
this territory was
already in Russia, as the Government of Mahileu after the 1st Partition
of POLAND, I am afraid.
They partly have moved out
to the easternmost parts of the
MINSK government to the Berezino
parish after circa
1840
or
1842
id est in the villages
BOROVINA
and MIEZONKA
(the
village is situated 28 kilometres south

I search for all information
about the village MIEZONKA

born on 23 April 1898 either
1897 or 23 April 1900; Belarus now, the
Bjalynicy (= Belynichi)

the Mogilev province)
"oblast"; the
village is situated among grand forest and southwards was big marsh -
Miezonka was at a territory of enormous estates the Radziwilles before
A.D. 1840;
the Combat Organization of
the Polish Socialist Party conducted a contraband of weapon from Russia
to Austria - Hungary at the beginning of the 20th century
keeping in touch with Josef Pilsudski (b.
1867) and
that track led out of Petersburg among other things across
Miezonka and Lodz (the
Tuvim street) in
the direction to Galicia; a family of ANDRZEJAK from Lodz
involved in this activity occupied quarters in Miezonka (among
other things) all
over the first World War and thus they became technolators of
aviation
and the
basis of the amateurish movement of aviation sports in Lodz after 1920;
the Polish school of

occupation
(others

The
essence of my genealogy
|
Among relatives and next of
kins of our Mscislau branch appeared the
Zarako
Zarakowski family
in the second half of 19th cent. and in the 20th cent.; the
Spychalski
family from Lodz was related
to kinsmen of our lineage at the turn of the 20th century and in the
middle of the 20th cent.; the
Jaroszewicz
family
had connection to our line in the middle of the 20th cent.
(the
Jaroszewicz house derived from the Vicebsk province and had
Prus the 1st arms, they possessed here the Ostupiszcze
estate
from Gruzewski family since 1710
to
the end of the 18th cent.; Jerzy Piotr Jaroszewicz with
Kwaczynski nickname was an officer here in 1713
- 1714 and
somebody here in 1716; related
to Kownacki, Rymaczewski
and
Kopakowski
according
to Jan Ciechanowicz, vol. 3; among others several of
the Jaroszewiczs died in
Old Bychow in
1655; priest Manuel Jaroszewicz in Sluck A.D. 1666, Roman
Jaroszewicz in Mahileu in 1682, and Jan Jaroszewicz in Vilna 1720
- 1722,
another Jan Jaroszewicz and also
his
son
Jan
lived
in Szaule near by Mejszagola in 1753,
Ludwik Jaroszewicz lived in the Mscislau
province
in 1764;
the Jaroszewiczs were related to
Jankowski,
Olszewski
and
Chodasiewicz
families
in the Dzisna district and also they served Radzivill family in the Minsk
government
at the turn of the 20th cent.;
Dmitrij
Jaroszewicz son of Konstantin, Russian admiral);
the
Swierczewski
family was near socially
associated with us, for instance in the sixtieth of the 20th
century. Some Generals, Prime Minister, the Head of State and one
marshal of the communistic Poland - the
creators of the Soviet administration 1943/1990 - derived
from these families.
Relatives of our Konstantynowicz branch
kept in touch with
Jozef
Pilsudski (military Intelligence of Austria -
Hungary),
Michal
Zymierski (Soviet military Intelligence) and
Wladyslaw
Sikorski
(?) at the moment in the first half of the 20th
century - marshals and General with different
political views. It wonder that three Marshals
and General - military prosecutor died with natural death but three
remaining Generals died with tragic one. Generals
of communistic People Polish Army: Karol Swierczewski, Piotr
Jaroszewicz and Marian Spychalski (later on the Marshal)
in the fourties of the 20th century were deputies of Michal Zymierski -
Marshal and communistic Minister of Defense. The genealogy of my
Mscislau "inlet" of the Konstantynowicz ancestry point out long and
strong connections with the Imperial Russian Army and Russian military
intelligence since the seventies of the nineteenth century and especial
at the turn of the 20th century since when they served in tsarist
Georgia. It was the tsarist military technology intelligence at the
beginning of the 20th century. This connections fade away probably at
the end of the 20th century. Anyway it relate to Poland only, and not
to our easterly neighbours, e.g. Russia and Belarus. This is
exciting subject for our family and to historians for the sake of
connections with a couple of intelligences, and also it's the example
of a genealogical tree on which based the important military structure
of communist Poland for 50 years. Very broad, general information on
these reciprocal connections was published for the first time in 2003
at my websites after researches ongoing 10 years and it was possible
just after complete destruction of previous political system.
Particular families of our ancestry didn't know mutually each
other and they didn't know general image of this
military genealogy up to 1995 (in piece) /
2003 (better in detail).
This strange configuration in the genealogy and surprising
family relationships give evidence to military service of
somebody from our Konstantynowicz family in Soviet Union.

till August 1924. A lot of the "Balachowiczs"
were employed in Hajnowka, Bialowieza and
Bielsk.
Kreczeuski and
Zacharko had
taken Byelorussian emblems and flags somewhere west.
According to
Konrad Zielinski from "Maria
Curie Sklodowska University in Lublin"
("POPULATION
DISPLACEMENT, CITIZENSHIP AND (...)"): "people
who voluntarily joined the foreign military service had no right for
Polish citizenship. (...) Newcomers from behind the eastern Polish
border were divided into two categories. The first category consisted
of Polish citizens i.e. Kingdom of Poland, who had immigrated to Russia
before or during the First world war and wanted to come back. The
second category consisted of Russians and Belorussians that were also
regarded as Russians. This category was divided into subcategories. The
first of them concerned people who were entitled to hold Polish
citizenship and the second one concerned people who did not have the
right. (...) Emigrants or refugees from Russia, when they wanted to
settle in Poland had to prove that: 1. they had enough funds to support
themselves or they could count on the help of their relatives in
Poland; 2. spotless moral reputation; 3. proper attitude towards Poles
during the Tsarist rule. However, Poles and people of Polish origin
were preferred. Ethnic non-Poles, who had never lived in the territory
of the Kingdom of Poland, Galicia, and the Poznan province, had no
right to Polish citizenship." This

Comment,
references and notes on heros - senior officers in the 1st Polish Corps in
Belarus 1917 - 1918 and about others Poles from tsarist army:
|
The White Corps of General
Dowbor Musnicki (Dovbor
- Mus'nicki) was
composite of the Polish from Russian Army. Polish society had known in
1918 only about nine tsarist Generals, Poles - according to
Baginski:
Gen. Michaelis, Dowbor Musnicki, Bylewski, Symon, Latour, Jacyna,
Lesniewski, Olszewski and Osinski. According to
Olechowski,
during the First world war in the tsarist Army served 800.000 Poles (20.000
officers and 102 Generals
in November 1917) but
only a couple of a dozen or so had gone through to Polish Corps (the
1st, 2nd and 3rd) in
1917 - 1918. According to
Szczesny in
Lithuanian Army (in
1919) as
many 60 % officers came from the 1st Polish Corps, e.g. commands and
orders in the
Birzai regiment
made in Polish (spring
1919).
According to
Gen. Bylewski (data
of April 01st, 1917) 119 Generals
- Catholics - mainly the Polish, 20.000 offficers and 480.000 - 700.000
private soldiers served in Russian Army and besides 100.000 prisoners
of war - Poles. According to
Alexander Lednicki in
June 1917 in Russian Army served only 314.000 Poles, and according to
Gen. Dowbor Musnicki were
300.000 the Polish.
|
|
Polish military and civil
administration subordinate to the
1st Polish Corps in
Belarus under command of Gen. Dowbor Musnicki had involved also
Miezonka,
Mahileu,
Babrujsk,
Rahacou,
Asipovicy,
Zlobin, Bychau,
Staryja Darohi,
Ljuban,
Urecca, but
didn't involve Berazino,
during since the end of February 1918 until the end of May 1918 with following of the Germans.
At margin: Mogilev
(i.e.
Mahileu) was occupied by the 1st Polish
Corps since March 12th, 1918.
