The Sobański, plural: Sobańscy, feminine form: Sobańska is a Polish noble family.[1] The family originated from Masovia, taking their name from the village Sobania and Sobanice in the land of Wyszogród and Ciechanów. Connected with the families Bieliński, Łubieński, Jełowicki, Borukowski and Gostkowski.
History edit
In the 15th century the Sobański family split into two lines: the "Ciechanowska" (older line) and "Wyszogrodzka" (younger line), the latter one used the nickname Ścibor. One branch of the Ścibor-Sobański settled in Pomerania, another one in Volhynia and Podolia. In 1880 Feliks Sobański from Podolia,[2] founder of the "Masovian line" of the family, received the hereditary title of Count from Pope Leo XIII.
