Sielecki
Sielecki (plural: Sieleccy, feminine form: Sielecka) is a Polish surname, also of one of the noble (''szlachta'') families. It is derived from the village of Sielec (other), Sielec, of which many exist with that name in Poland, Ukraine and Belarus. As is typical with Polish surnames, if noble families exist with the same family name but are not related to each other, a coat of arms was assigned to them in order to differentiate between each other. A person with the surname Sielecki does therefore not necessarily have to be related to each other or even be noble. The Sielecki family from Sielec, Drohobych Raion were Eastern Catholics of the Byzantine rite, as well as Roman catholic, while there are other Sieleckis who are Jewish from places such as Lithuania and Belarus, many of whom live in Argentina and South America today. Skrebeciowicz de Sielecki Around 1650 King John II Casimir Vasa, John II Casimir awarded the Cossack Ataman Skrebeciowicz one half of the estate ...

Ritter
Ritter (German for "knight") is a designation used as a title of nobility in German-speaking areas. Traditionally it denotes the second-lowest rank within the nobility, standing above "Edler" and below "Freiherr" (Baron). As with most titles and designations within the nobility in German-speaking areas, the rank was hereditary and generally was used with the nobiliary particle of von or zu before a family name. For its historical association with warfare and the landed gentry in the Middle Ages, the title of Ritter can be considered roughly equal to the titles of "Knight", but it is hereditary like the British title of "Baronet". The wife of a Ritter was called a "Frau" (in this sense "Lady") and not Ritterin. In heraldry, from the late 18th century a Ritter was often indicated by the use of a coronet with five points, although not everyone who was a Ritter and displayed arms made use of such a coronet. In the Austrian Empire and Austria-Hungary the title of "Ritter von" was ...

Order Of Franz Joseph
The Imperial Austrian Order of Franz Joseph (german: Kaiserlich-Österreichischer Franz-Joseph-Orden) was founded by Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria on 2 December 1849, on the first anniversary of his accession to the imperial throne. Classes The order was originally awarded in three classes: ''Grand Cross,'' ''Commander's Cross,'' and ''Knight's Cross.'' In 1869, the class of ''Commander with Star'' was added, which ranked immediately below the Grand Cross.

Officers wore it on the left breast without a ribbon. Commanders wore ...
