Alexander Joseph Sulkowski[1] (Polish: Aleksander Józef Sułkowski; 15 March 1695 – 21 May 1762) was a Saxon-Polish general and the progenitor of the Sułkowski noble line.
The Kraków-born Sulkowski was a favorite companion of August III the Saxon, son of Polish King Augustus II the Strong, and his Minister of State in Saxony from 1733 to 1738. He was created a Count of the Holy Roman Empire in 1733, and elevated to the rank of Prince of Bielsko by Empress Maria Theresa of Austria in 1754 .[2][3]According to some sources, Alexander Joseph was an illegitimate son born to Elżbieta Szalewska from King Augustus II.[2] Elżbieta's husband, Stanisław Sułkowski, gave Alexander Joseph his last name.
On 31 October 1728, Sulkowski married Baroness Marie Franciszka Frn von Stain zu Jettingen (2 February 1712 – 16 November 1741). They had eight children. In 1743, he married Css[clarification needed] Anna Przebendowska (25 July 1721 – 1795), with whom he had four more children. Sulkowski died 21 May 1762, aged 67, in Leszno.[citation needed]
Notable purchases
In 1738, Sulkowski purchased the Leszczyński estates of Rydzyna, Leszno, and neighboring areas. And in 1752,[2][4] he purchased the Sułkowski Castle in Bielsko-Biała (in Cieszyn Silesia) and its surroundings together with goods for 600,000 florins[2] from Jan Sunnegh.
