- Hunyadi_family abstract "The Hunyadi family was one of the most powerful aristocratic families in the Kingdom of Hungary in the 15th century. A member of the family, Matthias Corvinus was King of Hungary between 1458 and 1490, King of Bohemia (ruling in Lusatia, Moravia and Silesia) from 1469 to 1490, and Duke of Austria between 1487 and 1490. His illegitimate son, John Corvinus ruled the Duchy of Troppau (Opava, Czech Republic) between 1485 and 1501, and five further Silesian duchies—Beuthen (Bytom, Poland), Leobschütz (Głubczyce, Poland), Loslau (Wodzisław Śląski, Poland), Ratibor (Racibórz, Poland), and Tost (Toszek, Poland)—from 1485 to 1490. The Hunyadis' coat-of-arms depicted a raven with a golden ring in its bill. The founder of the family, Voyk received the epynomous Hunyad Castle (in present-day Hunedoara, Romania) from Sigismund, King of Hungary in 1409. His ethnicity is subject to scholarly debate. Modern historians describe him as a Vlach (or Romanian) knez or boyar either from Wallachia or from Transylvania, or as a Cuman or Slav nobleman. According to nearly contemporaneous chronicles, Voyk moved from Wallachia to Transylvania. Voyk's oldest son, John Hunyadi was often mentioned as "Vlach" by his contemporaries.John Hunyadi, a talented military commander, became the first member of the family to have acquired the status of "true barons of the realm". He was appointed Ban of Severin/Szörény (Drobeta-Turnu Severin, Romania) in 1439 and Voivode of Transylvania in 1441. He was granted the title Perpetual Count of Beszterce (Bistrița, Romania), thus receiving the first hereditary title in the Kingdom of Hungary, in 1452. At his death, John Hunyadi held extensive domains throughout the kingdom.John Hunyadi's fame and fortune promoted the election of his younger son, Matthias Corvinus king in 1458. Matthias Corvinus occupied Moravia, Silesia, Austria and other neighboring provinces. He attempted to secure the succession to his illegitimate son, John Corvinus, but the latter could only retain the Duchy of Glogau and the family domains in Hungary after Matthias Corvinus died in 1490. The last male member of the family, Christopher Corvinus—John Corvinus's only son—died at the age of six in 1505. His sister, Elisabeth neither survived childhood.".
