Divisions of land estates (divisiones bonorum) are sources which inform about the wealth basis of noble families. They deal with inherited estates, as well as with dowries for daughters and settlements of debts. The author discusses the divisions of land estates (mostly belonging to middle nobility) from two northern counties of Kalisz voivodeship: those of Nakło and Kcynia (26 documents in all). The divisions involve mainly middle nobility, owning several villages. The discussed documents inform mainly about the ways of dividing land estates, especially about the so-called „niedział” (common management of the estate). They also show the rules for preparing such agreements: who decided about the parts of the estate to be divided and who had the right to choose the inherited part first. The agreements from the 16th c. were compared with similar documents from the following century. This allows to conclude that the agreements from the 16th c. contain very little information, e.g. about the future of the widow of the late owner or about the debts of the land estates.

The Necpaly family ancestors had acquired their first possession in the County of Turiec (village of Necpaly) in 1287. However, their biggest property acquisition was connected with Ladislav of Necpaly. This leading person of the family in the 15th century had received possession of Žabokreky, Jahodníky, Horné Vrútky and Blatnica castle estates in the form of deposit and donations. After the extinction of the family male line the ownership relations in its Turiec estates became very complicated. Blatnica and Necpaly estates originally formed a single property entity until the middle of the 15th century. The financial problems of Blažej of Necpaly (nephew of Ladislav) after a tragic event in the family when his closest relatives ended up in Turkish captivity and the subsequent extinction of this family in the male line were the causes of the fact that at the end of the Middle Ages Blatnica dominion was divided between several owners: the Korom family, the Justs, the Záblatský, the Balaša or the Zápoľský and the Erdődy families. As for the inheritance of the Necpaly family, the villages of Necpaly, Žabokreky and Horné Vrútky in Turiec County remained mostly in the hands of the Justs who lived there and used the name of the village of Necpaly as their family name, but smaller portions passed to the Komorovský and Záblatský families.
