The progenitor of the Woyniłłowiczes’ from Boryszyn ancestral line was Stefan, a son of Iwan Woyniłłowicz. In 1653, one of his three sons, Trojan, bought Boryszyn, which gave the name of this family line. Trojan was a wealthy man – except Boryszyn, he came into possession of much of the part of Niańków (by buying his brothers’ heritage from them), as well as Sieliszcze and Łukonica. Boryszyn was inherited by his son, Jan Teodor. Then, it became part of the inheritance of his grandson, Józef, and a great-grandson, Florian, who suc-ceeded Trojan as the head of the Woyniłłowiczes’ from Boryszyn ancestry line.

Gabriel Woyniłłowicz belonged to mid-level officers elite in the royal army in the middle of the 17th century. He came from a Rus line, that settled in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in Nowogródek region. He was a son of Hrehor (Polish: Grzegorz, english: Gregory), an owner of the Gieyszewicze estate, located in Słonim province (powiat słonimski). He leased the royal property in Przemyśl region. Most often he is identified with the colonel Woyniłłowcz, who participated in the battle of Żołte Wody in 1648. The sources confirm that he was associated with officers of duke Jeremi Wiśniowiecki. He was a lieutenant of a Cossack regiment (chorągiew), belonged to Wiśniowiecki, during campaigns in Ukraine (Beresteczko, Biała Cerkiew) in the summer of 1651. As a lieutenant of the Stanisław „Rewera” Potocki’s medium cavalry regiment (chorągiew), he took part in Żwaniec campaign in a second half of 1653. Then he commanded the whole Grand Hetman of the Crown’s regiment during the battle of Ochmatów in 1655 and in autumn fights with Cossacks and Muscovy. During the Swedish invasion (the Deluge, Polish: “potop”) he was the first officer of the Crown who left the Swedish service, occupied Krosno in December 1655 and roused anti-Swedish movement in Pogórze region. Woyniłłowicz led the Cossacks royal regiment from January 1656, fighting in Stefan Czarnecki’s division against the Swedes (battle of Prostki, on the borderland between Mazowsze and Prusy, Swedish Pomorze in 1657, in Denmark in 1658) and against Muscovy in battles of Połonka and Basia River in 1660. He killed or died of wounds during campaign in the first half of 1664.

There is a growing demand amongst historians for an increasing number of studies (amongst them genealogical ones) about Ruthenian noble families in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. One of such families was the Woyniłłowicz family, coming from Hospodar’s nobility, who settled at the end of the 15th century near Nowogródek. In the second half of the 16th century the family had already grown – at that time the lands of Klukowicze and Niańków were in their possession. From this period came one of the most distinguished figures in the family, who gave rise to several Woyniłłowicz’s ancestral lines, which continued throughout the 19th and 20th centuries.

he diary of Gustav Otto Stenbock from the Royal Prussia campaign in autumn 1656 and the account of the battle of Filipów (22.10.1656) are in the Riksarkivet archive in Stockholm. They have not yet been used in the study of the Polish-Swedish War of 1655–1660. In many places, correlating with the relevant fragment of the work of Samuel Pufendorf on the wars of Charles X Gustav, they introduce new details: the chronology of the initial phase of the Stenbock campaign and the composition of the division led by the Lithuanian field marshal Wincenty Gosiewski. In the latter case, it is not certain whether the list concerns the battle of Prostki (8.10.1656) or Filipów. The bases of the edition were copies from the Swedish Microfilms collection at the Central Archives of Historical Records in Warsaw
