Summary/Abstract: Włodzimierz Dworzaczek’s published manuscript entitled “The Raszewski Family Bearing the Grzymała Coat of Arms” is a special work by an eminent genealogist written before WWII, when its author made his living doing research at the request of private individuals. Only his two works of this kind survived until our own times, and both are a part of the collections of the Kórnik Library. Dworzaczek wrote the Raszewski family’s genealogy for General Kazimierz Raszewski from Poznan in 1936, leading the direct line from the end of the 15th century to the general himself (end of the 19th century). Although the manuscript is incomplete (several last pages are missing), its publication is an important and much-needed supplementation to the genealogy of Polish noble families, due to the scant number of publications concerning the Raszewski family
