Izakovič (Croatian/Bosnian/Serbian version Izaković/Isaković, English phonetic transcription: Ezakovich) was originally a family of farmers who came to today's area of Slovakia in 16th century from Balkan region and settled in village Dlhá. In 17th century up to four members of the family became Roman Catholic priests. The priest Juraj Izakovič and his immediate family became lesser noblemen.

The surname Izakovič was created as the combination of first name Isaac and suffix -ovič ​​(Slavic suffix, means "son of").

The family used following forms of the surname: Izakovics, Isakovics, Izákovics, Isákovics but in historical documents and Slovak church records there are also forms: Izakovits, Isakovits, Izakovich, Izákovich, Isakovich, Isákovich, Izakowic, Izákowic, Isakowic, Isákowic, Izakowitz, Izakhowitz, Isakhowitz[1] and others.

History

[edit]

The first written records of this family in Slovakia can be found in Urbár panstva Červený Kameň (Tax Inventory of Červený Kameň estate). First Izakovič called Juro Izakovič Jagovič (Juro Izakowitz Jagowitz) came to Dlhá on May 6, 1546. He received abandoned house no. 35, he was exempted from paying taxes for 3 years and then paid 40 Hungarian denars a year.[1] It is believed that he was of Balkan origin and left the territory of today's Croatia as a result of Turkish raids.[2]

There is also Juraniš Izakovič (Juranisch Isakhowitz) mentioned in Urbár panstva Červený Kameň. Around year 1550 he received an abandoned house no. 25, he was exempted from paying taxes for 3 years and then had to pay 40 Hungarian denars a year.

In the so-called pálffyovský urbár (Pálffy's Tax Inventory) from 1598 there is mentioned Juro Izakovič (Juro Isakhowicz) as the only descendant of the family who farmed on 1/4 of the homestead. [3] He was probably the mentioned Juraniš Izakovič or his son.

In the 17th century up to four members of the family studied to become Roman Catholic priests: Peter, Juraj, Pavol (Pavol Jozef[4]) and Ján Jozef.

On August 10, 1652 in Prague Emperor Ferdinand III. of Habsburg granted the priest Juraj Izakovič (* 1620, Dlhá – † after 1666) and his siblings a lesser noblemen title. According to the grant of arms, the descendants of the ennobled branch of the Izakovič family of both sexes can use the family's coat of arms and nobiliary particle "from Dlhá", i.e. Izakovics de Longa Villa.[5][6]

According to the genealogical research of Frederik Federmayer, Beáta Kapustová Izakovičová and Jozef Izakovič, all noble descendants of the Izakovič family in Slovakia are descendants of Michal Izakovič who was the brother of the priest Juraj Izakovič. Michal Izakovič had 5 children: Ján, Judita[5], Štefan, Alžbeta, Michal.[7]

In this generation, the first division of the ennobled branch took place:

  1. Moravský Svätý Ján's branch – all ennobled Izakovičs with origins at Záhorie are descendants of Michal's eldest son Ján (* ca. 1650 – † after 1699) who went to Moravský Svätý Ján from where the branch spread to Závod, Malacky, Sekule, Bratislava, Czech Republic, Hungary and USA.
  2. Dlhá's branch – all ennobled Izakovičs with origins at Trnava and surrounding areas are descendants of Michal's youngest son Michal (* ca. 1663 – † 1709) who remained living in Dlhá.[8] This branch spread to Trnava, Zvončín, Suchá nad Parnou, Borová, Dolné Orešany, Horné Orešany, Boleráz, Klčovany, Bratislava, Nové Mesto nad Váhom, Ružomberok and Switzerland.

Several members of Dlhá's branch were village mayors: Matej (* 1692 – † 1745) in Dlhá, Michal (* 1718 – † 1781) in Dlhá, Michal (* 1776 – † 1858) in Dlhá[9], Jozef (* 1779 – † 1849) in Zvončín, Martin (* 1894 – † 1945) in Zvončín.[8]

All non-ennobled Izakovič descendants are descendants of František Izakovič, son of Juraj Izakovič from Dlhá. It is not known how František's father Juraj Izakovič and the priest Juraj Izakovič were related. All descendants of František Izakovič are listed as peasants without any title in all Slovak church records.

Descendants of both the ennobled (lesser noblemen) and non-ennobled branches live in today's Slovakia. Ancestors who belong to the ennobled branch and were born before year 1848 have one of the following titles listen in the church record books: Latin nobilis, Hungarian nemes (English: noble), Latin dominus (English: master) or Latin inscriptionalista (a person who received a reward for his merits).[10][11]

Genetic Genealogical Research

[edit]

Genetic genealogical research of the Izakovič family and the mutual kinship of individual branches and variants of this surname is currently underway using genetic yDNA tests of male descendants. The aim is to find out if:

  • all Izakovič branches in Slovakia have a common ancestor
  • members of Izaković and/or Isaković families in Balkan have a common ancestor with Izakovičs in Slovakia.

Coat of Arms

[edit]

Until certain time, descendants of the ennobled branch had no information about existence of the original coat of arms where handpainting of the coat of arms is located[12], therefore one of the noble descendants, Martin Izakovič, asked Slovak herald Ladislav Vrtel to reconstruct the historical coat of arms of the Izakovič family based on the text of the grant of arms and registered it in heraldic register of the Slovak Republic in 2017: in a blue shield in gold nest on silver rocks a standing black natural winged eagle in golden armor, in its beak a silver torch burning with red flame. Below the crown from the open tournament helmet, here blue-gold, there red-silver mantlings merge. The crest is a red Latin cross surmounted by a golden seven-pointed star - all this surrounded by a pair of black wings each of which bears the sign of three golden stars (1,1,1) separated from each other by silver threads.[13]

On the occasion of the matriculation of Izakovič coat of arms on December 19, 2017 descendants of branches from Moravský Svätý Ján and Dlhá met in Bratislava for the first time in 365 years. The next meeting of the descendants of the ennobled branch took place on May 26, 2024 in Borová where Beáta Kapustová Izakovičová presented the oldest history of Izakovics de Longa Villa family, the biography of Master of Philosophy and Doctor of Theology Juraj Izakovič, information about the grant of arms and the original coat of arms, first addressees of the grant of arms, family tree and the division of the family into individual branches.

The original grant of arms is in private ownership in Bratislava. A copy of the text of Izakovics de Longa Villa grant of arms can be found in the State Archive in Bratislava.

According to the 1930 census, there were 26 families with the surname Izakovič living in Dlhá and its surroundings but genealogical research by Beáta Kapustová Izakovičová confirmed that only 15 families belonged to the ennobled branch[8] and all of them were Roman Catholic.
