The Roskie Archive is the archival legacy of three aristocratic families: Sapieha coat of arms (COA) Lis, Branicki COA Gryf and Potocki COA Pilawa. The vast fortune, whose headquarters was at Ros village, located in the former county Vowkavysk (today western Belarus), was formed in the late of 18th century as a result of marriage Krystyna Branicki COA Griffin, Ros village heiress, with Franciszek Sapieha, owner of Bociek village in Podlaskie as well as Trościanica and Turow villages in Brest region. Their daughter, Teresa, married to Joachim Potocki was the heir. Her descendants have inherited a large part of the estate - including Tykocin - after the childless death of Castellan of Cracow and Grand Crown Hetman Jan Klemens Branicki. The Roskie Archives includes also records of previous owners of the estate: the Families of Słuszek, Chodkiewicz and Hlebowicz. Actually it does not include the last period, when Ros village - already in the 20th century - as a result of family bequest fell into the hands of Branicki Familly from Wilanów COA Korczak. The Roskie Archives is divided into four sections: I. Personal and family records and records of the property and business (16–20 c.), II. Records of a public nature (17–19 c.), III. Militaria (16–18 c.) and IV. Correspondence (18–19 c.). Elaboration of the Roskie Archive was the last work of an outstanding archivist and historian Prof. Teresa Zielińska (1929–2010).
