How did this family obtain the title of Prince. I can't find a Polish king they were descended from?
 * They probably received the title from a foreign monarch. See Czartoryski.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 21:38, 25 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Nope, Czartoryskis are direct descendants of Olgierd, grand prince of Lithuania. Their title is their own by birthright.

You mean Algirdas, grand prince of Lithuanians and Ruthenians? Isn't it rather Gediminas than Algirdas? Anyway: Yes, they are princes in a similar way as so many russian nobles are princes.

The thing I wonder is why that gal is dubbed a Borbon. Distant foremothers do not usually are in display in Spanish-custom surnames, only the mother. Are there any evidence that even she really uses Borbon (I mean uses, whether entitled to use or not), or is this again some hoax, some putting Borbon to her name because she is distantly descended from a Borbon ancestress. ??

Following the spanish tradition her name is Tamara Laura Czartoryska y Picciotto, in polish her name is Tamara Laura Czartoryska. She uses surname Borbon because her father's name in spanish is Adán Carlos Czartoryski y de Bórbon-Dos Sicilias (in polish Adam Karol Czartoryski-Burbon). Maby it is more effective Avro52 (talk) 08:33, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
