he subject of attention as well as the bibliographic and librarian inquiry is the first biography of Saint Casimir that was written in Polish. The Saint was mentioned by Piotr Skarga in the seventh edition of Lives of the Saints (Krakow 1610) when the author incorporated his own biography of St. Casimir into the collection. Skarga also added information that this biography written in Polish was published in 1606. Thanks to this information, bibliographers managed to establish that the print was published in Vilnius and that its author was Chryzostom Wołodkowicz (Wołodkiewicz), as was believed – a soldier of the military commandeer Jan Karol Chodkiewicz, later a writer of Samogitia. The information was most fully popularized by Bibliografia polska (Polish bibliography) by Karol Estreicher (vol. 33, published by Stanisław Estreicher, Krakow 1939). However, the print was only known by its title, and its copy had not been described. The author of the article investigated the history of the information about the print and established that it was first mentioned by bibliographers and Jesuit heraldic officers in the 17th and 18th centuries (Wojciech Wijuk Kojałowicz and especially Kasper Niesiecki). Following this path, the author assumed that the copy should be in Lviv or one of its neighbouring cities. His intuition was rewarded and the copy was found in the Lviv library. As a result, the author described the copy and on its basis corrected the information about its author.

W artykule poddano analizie poszukiwania wiedzy o pochodzeniu rodziny (osiadłej w końcu XVI w. na Żmudzi), prowadzone w II połowie XVIII w. przez podkomorzego żmudzkiego Jakuba Ignacego Nagórskiego (†1799). W początkowej fazie poszukiwań przebadano niedługo wcześniej wydany herbarz Kaspra Niesieckiego. Następnie udało się odnaleźć kronikę rodzinną imienników z Polski (h. Leszczyc), z powiatu łęczyckiego, spisaną w połowie XVII w. – na początku XVIII w., która zachęciła do stworzenia podobnej kroniki dla osiadłej na Żmudzi rodziny Nagórskich (h. Pobóg). Ostatecznie ustalono, że na Żmudź Nagórscy przybyli z Polski, z powiatu łęczyckiego (choć realnego powiązania genealogicznego z rodziną zamieszkałą w Polsce nie odnaleziono), a protoplastą rodziny został zamieszkały w XVI w. w Polsce Jakub, ojciec Marcina (czyli pierwszej osoby, która przybyła na Żmudź). Taka „skombinowana” wersja rodowodu była dogodna dla Jakuba Ignacego Nagórskiego – inicjatora tych poszukiwań, który dzięki swemu statusowi oraz wyborowi protoplasty „uwiecznił” imię Jakuba w świadomości genealogicznej rodziny. The article gives an analysis of the search for the genesis of a family settled at the end of the sixteenth century in Samogitia, undertaken in the second half of the eighteenth century by the chamberlain (podkomorzy) of Samogitia Jakub Ignacy Nagórski (d. 1799). First, the armorial by Kasper Niesiecki, edited not long before, has been examined. Later, a chronicle of a family of the same name has been found, a family bearing the coat of arms Leszczyc, based in Poland, in the Łęczyca district. This chronicle, written down between the mid-seventeenth and early eighteenth century, became an incentive for the Nagórski family from Samogitia, bearing the Pobóg coat of arms, to create a similar chronicle of their own. Finally, it could be established that the Nagórski family came to Samogitia from Poland, from the Łęczyca district; although a real genealogical connection with the Polish counterpart could not be made. The ancestor was to become Jakub, living in the sixteenth century in Poland, father of Marcin, the first family member who arrived in Samogitia. This ‘combined’ lineage was convenient for Jakub Ignacy Nagórski, the initiator of the search, who – thanks to his status and his choice of ancestor – ‘immortalised’ the name of Jakub in the family’s genealogical consciousness.
