Andrew Bobola - Modern Bobola Family

Modern Bobola Family

It is assumed that a part of the Bobola family exists to this day under the name of Bobola, they currently live mainly in Warsaw (about 30 persons), Poland. This is a part which, precisely, seems to have been rooted in Pinsk for some time. In the 17th century, a nobleman from Pinsk underwriting himself as Bobola used the Leliwa coat of arms, the same as Saint Andrew Bobola's ones. Nevertheless, most of them still bear the name of Bobola and are spread whole over Poland (more than 200 persons).

Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or family:

    Much of the modern resistance to chastity comes from men’s belief that they “own” their bodies—those vast and perilous estates, pulsating with the energy that made the worlds, in which they find themselves without their consent and from which they are ejected at the pleasure of Another!
    —C.S. (Clive Staples)

    It was occasions like this that made me more resolved than ever that my family would someday know real security. I never for a moment doubted that I myself would ultimately provide it for them.
    Mary Pickford (1893–1979)
