Lőrinte (Leurente or Leurenthe) was the name of a gens (Latin for "clan"; nemzetség in Hungarian) in the Kingdom of Hungary, which possessed lands in Transdanubia, mainly Veszprém and Zala counties. The Essegvári and Bezerédj families descended from this clan. [1]
The namesake founder of the clan, Lőrinte (a name variant of Lawrence) possibly lived in the 12th century. The kindred centered around the village Lőrinte (present-day Lőrintepuszta, a borough of Kolontár) in Veszprém County. [2] There, they also erected a church. [3] According to historian Attila Zsoldos, the Lőrinte kindred came from a lower social status ( castle warriors or royal servants), who elevated into the Hungarian nobility due to their services for the royal court. [4]
The first known member of the kindred, Dedalus acted as pristaldus (bailiff) of Judge royal Julius Rátót in 1236, during a lawsuit between the nobles of Vigánt. The Judge royal instructed Dedalus to determine the borders of portions within the village in order to settle the conflict. [1] [5]
John (I) known only by name. His elder son Lőrinte (I) was born in the early 13th century. He married Margaret Sitkei, who originated from the powerful gens (clan) Ják. He died sometime before 1251. In that year, his brother Saul paid the dower to Lőrinte's widow and her second husband Deta Pok following a lawsuit before Zlaudus Ják, Bishop of Veszprém. Saul acted as a witness testifying in favor of the the nuns of Veszprém Valley during a litigation in 1259. Together with his relative John, Saul was a member of that ten-member judiciary of Veszprém County in 1268, which supervised the complaints of nobles regarding illegal seizures of possessions by castle folks, udvornici and other conditional nobles in the spirit of the 1267 decree issued by Béla IV of Hungary. Saul bore the honorary title of comes since 1268. Saul functioned as an arbiter in a murder case between the residents of Gyulakeszi and Tóti in 1270. For his service, he was granted Halimba and Örs by Béla IV. [6]
The earliest known member of this branch was Ant (or Onth). He held possessions near Endréd, in the region between Gyepes (now a borough of Ajka) and Noszlop in 1256. Ant married an unidentified daughter of Buzád (III) from the powerful gens (clan) Hahót, thereafter he moved to Zala County. [7] Ant's kinship became familiares of the Hahót clan. His son John was granted the village Pacsa by his maternal uncle Atyusz Hahót in 1291, for his services and the fact of their kinship. The family lived there after that. [8]
Following the death of Atyusz in the 1300s, John Pacsai became the guardian of his minor cousin John (the son of Atyusz and progenitor of the Szabari family). As a result, John Szabari donated Gelsesziget him after he reached adulthood. [7] Stephen was the only known son of John Pacsai. He is first mentioned in 1326, when his father requested Charles I of Hungary to confirm his right of ownership over Pacsa. [8]
Stephen entered court service at a young age. He served as vice- ispán of Zala County from 1350 to 1351. [9] Thereafter, he administered Gerzence (Garešnica) County in Slavonia (1352) then Križevci County (1355). [10] He was forced to defend his right of ownership over Pacsa during a lawsuit in 1358. He had no known descendants. [8]
