Coat of arms Łada
Coat of arms Lada in red field, or according to Dlugosz, in sky blue, above a white horse shoe a golden crest of fame, on the right side of the horse shoe a grey arrow, on the left a hunter's forked rosochacz (game arrow?); on the cask there were once eagle's wings, later ostrich's feathers, now a lion with his paws up, holding up a sword. Paprocki: "o herb." Page 322, Bielski, page 173, Okol, book 2, page 20. This coat of arms is known from an ancestor, who received it as first and took the name of Lada: as Bielski and an anonymous author write , at the time of Boleslaw Wstydliwy /Shy) in the year 1248 the heir of goods called Lada, while his subjects were working in the fields, was suddenly surrounded by Jadzwings (who, at the time after the death of Masovian Prince Conrad, were destroying the land around Sandomierz together with Lithuanians) shot many of the attackers; escaping into a nearby forest, he found hunter's forks, which he showed the Masovian Prince and together they fought the attackers and made them escape; though Paprocki states in "Gniazdo Polskie" that only at the time of Kind Lokietek

(Elbow) about 1306 a Jastrzebczyk was allowed this jewel for his many merits. According to Parifim (??) there is an even earlier beginning of this coat of arms; he says in Vapisca Volateryana penegeryku in Probe that when Quadi Svewi and Marcomani, having brought four times one hundred people in the fight under Mediclan Aurelius Roman Cesar for every head, after such a disaster, when Aurelius gathered his soldiers again they fought at Placencya; but Quadi, going back into the forests attacked the Romans early in the morning and repeated the previous slaughter; after this victory in Galicia he conquered 60 towns by burning them out. Lada, called colonel, who was in this battle braver than others, in memory of this extraordinary heroism, gave him this coat of arms. This from Parifim

Borzymowski, coat of arms Lada, I have omitted in the first book because X. Koialow says explicitly about them that in the Masovian district, in the Land Wiskica they had their estate called Borzymy, earlier they called de Cymianka, but when they at the time of Masovian Prince Wladyslaw they were given bigger lands and estates not far from Cymianka, where Boromeus de Cymianka founded a village he called after his name Borzymy and a second one not far from Borzymy, called Borzymowskie.From those Stanislaw Borzymowski, who served a long time at the Lithuanian army with commanders Chodkiewicz and Radziwil, settled in the district Polock. The son of Rafal was Grzegorz, whose son Wojciech and his sons Jan, Marcin, Maciej and Jedrzej.
