Division
The family, originally very small, significantly grew, which caused divisions of the fortune possessed, but made a political start easier thanks to the support of many people in the Sejms, in the Senate or at the royal court. Successive representatives of the family were also able to count on the support from their relatives in the political or court activities.
The family split into five major lineages: of Wiśnicz (from Aleksander Michał (1614 – 1677), Łańcut (from Stanisław Herakliusz (1642 – 1702), Przeworsk (from Aleksander Michał – d. 1675), Rzeszów (from Hieronim Augustyn (c. 1647 – 1706) and Janowiec (from Jerzy Dominik (1665 – 1727). The most numerous was the line of Przeworsk, which was divided into three branches: dubrowieńsko-kruszyńska, równieńsko-przeworska and dubieńska. Many representatives of this line live now.

“For in the division of the nations of the whole earth he set a ruler over every people; but Israel is the Lord’s portion: whom, being his firstborn, he nourisheth with discipline, and giving him the light of his love doth not forsake him. Therefore all their works are as the sun before him, and his eyes are continually upon their ways.”
