Sas coat-of-arms

Krynicki (Polish: Kryniccy) is the surname of three Polish noble families of the Sas and Korab coats-of-arms.

Krynicki (Sas)

One Krynicki family of the Sas coat-of-arms is descended from Szandro (Alexander) the Wallachian (Szandro Wołoch) who received the village of Krynica near Lviv (now Stryi Raion, Lviv Oblast) from King Władysław II Jagiełło in 1402.[1] In 1448 King Casimir IV granted knights Daszko (Daniel) and Sienko (Semyon) with the villages of Krynica and Morachwa in Podolia.[1] Their descendants also used the Sas coat-of-arms.[1]

Krynicki (Korab)

Korab coat-of-arms

In 1610 a commoner Jan from Krynica was ennobled by King Sigismund III Vasa with the Korab arms for participation in the war against Muscovy.[2] The origins of the Kryniskis of the Korab arms are uncertain. It is believed that Jan Krynicki originated in Krynica-Zdrój.[3] There is a hypothesis that Jan Krynicki was the son of Danko from Miastko (the current village of Tylicz), the first soltys of Krynica, a rich peasant from Wallachia.[4] Nevertheless, Jerzy Krynicki believes he was a burgher.[5] However, Tadeusz M.Trajdos argues there is no certainty as to where Jan Krynicki actually came from.[6] The debate over Jan Krynicki's background is complicated by the fact that in the patent it says his mother hailed from an old Polish noble family, thus a marriage choice for a commoner is questioned.[5] Z. Wąsowicz believes Danko from Miastko was a Polish Catholic instead.[5] Tadeusz Trajdos also points out that there is no record of Jan Krynicki's possible offspring and, thus, no documented connection with the Krynickis who used the Korab coat-of-arms in the 18th century.[7]
