Karol Ścibor-Marchocki coat of arms Osto­ja (86 years)

KAROL, was born in Otrokiv (UA), on 01/12/1794, died in Odesa, on 25/10/1881. He inherited from his father the Mińkowiecki estate and the estate near Odesa. He plays an active role in the political and social life of Podole. He becomes friends with Michal Beaupre, Karol Maszkowski, and Michalski.

In the end of the 17-th century, Poland was partitioned by Germany, Russia, and Austria. Caryca Katarzyna of Russia, called the Great, persuaded the Cesar of Germany and the Cesar of Austria, to divide-up Poland among themselves. In Poland, in those times, liberal influences were so strong, that Caryca Katarzyna, as well as the cesars of Germany and Austria were afraid that under the influence of the liberal movements in Poland, a revolution could occur in Russia, Germany, or Austria. Thus they concurred upon the partitioning of Poland. Germany occupied the western provinces of Poland [Poznańsk and Pomorze], Austria took Małopolska [known as Galicja or Red Russia], and Russia engulfed the central portion of Poland, with the capital Warszawa, the portion later known under the name of the Kingdom of Poland, as well as all the lands of Poland to the east; that is Podole, Wołyń, Polesia, as well as Lithuania.

Three times thereafter there was a polish uprising against the robbers, however each of these uprisings was crushed by the carist armies of Russia and the mighty army of Germany. After each of these unsuccessful uprisings, tens of thousands of Polish people were shot to death, or exiled to Siberia. Karol takes part in the so-called October uprising, at the rank of Major of the Polish Army. He also takes an active part in the uprising later known under the name "actions of Konarski". Because of his participation in these two uprisings, he was exiled to Siberia (at Tobolsk), where he spent a total of about 6 years. The Russian government also confiscated from him all of his estates.

To protect his most beloved and valuable estate, Otroków, from confiscation, Karol pretended to give this estate to his friend Stadnicki. However, when in 1845, Karol hr. Ścibor-Marchocki returned for Siberia, Stadnicki refused to return Otroków to him, saying that it had been given to him as a gift. In this manner, when later the Russian government returned portions of the confiscated estates, Otroków, with the family cemmentary, never did return to us.

Karol was twice married. In his youth, he took as his bride Bona Trzcińska, with whom however he did not have any children. After his return from Siberia, he married again, with Elenora Roguska, likewise, with the coat-of-arms Ostoja. With his second wife, Elenora, Karol had six children, five sons and one daughter, namely: Albert (1854 - 1911), Ludwik (1856 - 1935), Teresa (1857 - 1956), Kazimierz (1858 - 1914), Karol (1859 - 1926), Julian (1861 - 1926).
