Abstract
The article describes activities of Stanisław Goczałkowski, coat of arms Poraj (d. 1787/88) that were performed in favor of Jan Klemens Branicki, Hetman and Castellan of Kraków. It presents the liege - liegeman relation through over 10 years (1760–1771). Goczałkowski is not widely known in the literature, with the exception of his activities during the initial period of the Confederation of Bar (1768–1772) in Kraków and the Kraków province. Goczałkowski came from a rather not wealthy nobility of Wielkopolska. His service started in 1760 at the court of Jan Klemens Branicki, one of the most powerful lords of Poland what gave him a chance for social advancement and wealth. Year 1762 influenced the relations between Goczałkowski and Branicki and bound Goczałkowski for life with the province of Kraków. Goczałkowski represented the hetman while conclusion of a compromise with Józef Stadnicki, tenant of Branicki’s ancestral lands of Branice and Ruszcza near Kraków. It was an extremely active period in his life and from that time survived the most of his letters to Branicki. They contained details on matters of legal and property-related economic issues and dispute and a number of things and people associated with Jan Klemens Branicki. After the conclusion of compromise with Stadnicki, Goczałkowski became the tenant of Branice and Ruszcza. Soon it led to a deterioration of his relations with Branicki. Moreover, on behalf of Branicki Goczałkowski managed goods of Kraków castellany, as Castellan of Kraków. For this reason he used a title of burgrave of Myślenice. Until the death of Branicki (d. 1771) Goczałkowski took care of issues in his favor of a personal and public nature. Additionally, after the death of Branicki Goczałkowski entered in the legal and financial dispute with his wife Izabela Branicka. Despite this, he remained with her in lively contacts till the end of his life.
