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).

Families of Pilecki, Stadnicki and Lubomirski were the next owners of Łańcut estate from the mid–14th century. In 1816 this estate was passed to Julia, the daughter of Stanislaw and Elizabeth (Isabella) from the Czartoryski Lubomirski Family. Julia was the wife of Jan Potocki, a famous writer and traveler. Then the property was inherited by their sons, Alfred and Arthur. The latter received Krzeszowice and Lancut inherited Alfred. In hands of his descendants remained Lancut to 1945, its last owner, Alfred Potocki, exported the most valuable archives of Austria in 1945. After the death of Alfred Potocki and his wife archives have been divided. Parchments and part of the papers were purchased by Dr. Tomasz Niewodniczanski (then he handed it to the collections of the Royal Castle in Warsaw), part of the financial, legal and personal documents from the Potockis’ Archive bought Brigham Young University, correspondence file and the rest of the financial documents acquired The Polish Institute of Arts and Sciences of America (PIASA). PIASA forwarded to AGAD one part of the legacy of Potocki Family in 1994. Then Brigham Young University sold its part of the Łańcut collection to Polish authorities in 2000. PIASA donated the last part of the Potockis’ Archive to AGAD thanks to the efforts of the Head Office of the Polish State Archives and many people of good will in spring of 2008. These are the materials from the sixteenth to 20th century, which are located in 76 boxes and measure six meters. The materials include: correspondence from 17th to 20th century, personal files of Potocki Family, and above all extremely valuable documents of county of Wiśnicz, province Krakow 16th-19th century. A few documents are related to other estates and public affairs. Reconstructed in this way The Potockis’ Lancut Archive became one of the most valuable archives of private provenance preserved in AGAD.
