[edit] Mother
Article states that his mother was Małgorzata (Margaret) de Drobniy Kryska. The name (as are others in the curent article) were an obvious post-accident of translations/latinizations/misspelings, so I took a turn at recreating them. I'd decipher Margaret de Drobniy Kryska as Małgorzata Kryska from Drobnin (it was indeed the seat of Kryski family). She is also reffered to in some Polish sources as Małgorzata z Kryskich (z Drobnina).
Search for more info on Jan Kostka reveals there was more then one. Note that his father Jan Kostka was kasztelan zakroczymski from 1564, and not kasztelan gdański (c.1529-1581) currently at Jan Kostka, married to Jadwiga Przerembska (his other wife name was Zofia Odrowąż) and father of another Stanisław Kostka (Stanisław is Polish for Stanislaus). This can get confusing, I know. Polish article which sheds some light on this is here. Thus Jan Kostka should become a disambig - I'll go ahead and make it so.
As for chancellor Felix Kryski (Felix is Polish Feliks) there was chancellor (kanclerz) Szczęsny Kryski (Polish surnames change based on gender, so masculine Kryski is feminine Kryska). It is very likely that the full name of this individual was Feliks Szczęsny Kryski (Feliks Szczęsny was a fairly common first/second name combination in those times), and there was indeed was indeed the kanclerz wielki koronny (Great Crown Chancellor), reffered to in various sources as either F/FS/S Kostka, so no matter what name combinations are used, he is the one and same person. Some more info about him I googled out [1]: referendarz wielki koronny; Po śmierci A. Balińskiego nominowany na jego część starostwa 1603 – 1606 cesja na rzecz P. Grabskiego, podkanclerzy koronny, kanclerz wielki koronny, wcześniej starosta kruszwicki; z nominacji 1613 – 1617 cesja na następcę, father of Wojciech Kryski.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 00:02, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
Kostka geneaology proved quite useful.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 00:22, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
