Kurowie
Kurowie was a Polish noble family, from Mazovia in medieval Poland.[1]
History
The family was first mentioned on 2 May 1239 in Tabulatorium Actorum Antiquorum Varsoviense Maximum. Bolesław I of Masovia confirmed the purchase of the village Doiasdovo[2] by Cur and Jozeph for 7 Grzywna.[3][4] Their family seat Kurów was probably first mentioned between 1112 and 1118 in the Gesta principum Polonorum of Gallus Anonymus as castrum Galli, which is interpreted as Gall's Castle.
