Hi everbody, my name is Matthias v. Zmuda. It`s right, that our family is orginated in "Trzebiatkow", but without "-ski". The ending "-ski" has the same mening like in german "von". The family Smuda also lived in "Zemmen" and "Adels Lonken". All vilages are situatet in Pommern, exactly in Kreis Buetow. They were first mentioned 1515 by Duke Bogislaw X. von Pommern. Original all members of our family were nobels. But the nobility in Poland was conected with property. If someone lost his property he also had lost his nobility. Some of our family also did not mentionet their nobel status anymore so that later members forgot their nobel roots. The original coat of arms are looking like the discription above. But there are several variations. It depends to the origin of your ancestors. I hope could help those who are interessted in our family history.
