[5] In accordance with the contract, Nicholas and Ladislaus acquired the southern and eastern portion of Csetnek, along with the surrounding villages Restér (Roštár), Gecelfalva (Koceľovce), Pétermány (Petrovo), Marcellusfalva (Marcelová), Sebespatak (Rožňavské Bystré), Tornova (Trnová), Tapolca (Kunova Teplica), Ardó (Ardovo), Lekenye (Bohúňovo) and Panyit (Gemerská Panica).

Nicholas (I), also representing his brothers, successfully requested the confirmation of King Béla's 1243 royal charter in 1335, in order to defend their interests against the neighboring lords and even the claims of the Bebek family.

[8] The Csetnekis, together with the Bebeks, were involved in a series of lawsuits against the Máriássy family over the possessions Berzéte (Brzotín) and Krasznahorka (Krásna Hôrka), which both estates they had lost under unclear circumstances in the late 13th century.

Following the death of Louis in 1382, the Csetnekis supported his daughter Mary, Queen of Hungary and her mother Elizabeth of Bosnia during the internal conflict against Charles III of Naples.

[18][7] Following Michael's death, his relatives were unable to pay the dowry of his widow Clara, thus they were forced to pledge their portions in Tapolca (Kunova Teplica), Szalóc (Slavec) and Ardó (Ardovo) in November 1401.

[21] Because of his frequent travels with Sigismund, Pope Boniface IX permitted him to use his own portable altar with clerical staff in his papal letter issued in June 1397, which was a significant privilege for a nobleman in the late 14th century.

In the document, George bequeathed his all purchased and pledged property to his wife and daughter Catherine, with the stipulation that after the death of both of them the estates would belong to his son, Sigismund (II) and his descendants.

In August 1433, Ladislaus stayed in Rome, when requested Pope Eugene IV to grant indulgence to those subjects who went on a pilgrimage to one of the seven churches founded by his late father around Csetnek.

[38] Since the Roman Curia did not acknowledge the supremacy of the Hungarian royal over ecclesiastical affairs, Pope Eugene IV did not confirm Ladislaus' appointment and he was styled as only bishop-elect throughout his episcopal reign.

[49] Following the Battle of Mohács (1526), when the medieval state of Hungary collapsed, Sigismund (III) and Peter (IV) – sons of Nicholas (VI) – supported the claim of John Zápolya for the Hungarian throne.

In 1569, King Maximilian instructed the Szepes Chamber (Zipser Kammer) to deliver Csetnek's annual tax (607 golden florins) to Ladislaus in order to strengthen the defense of the castle against continuous Ottoman incursions.

Following his death in 1594 (probably due to war injury), his nephew, the minor Francis (III) was the only male member of the family, he was raised by his maternal relatives, the brothers of his late mother, Anne Máriássy.

Benedict's other unidentified daughter married Roland Szalonnai, who, as the son of Stephen originated from the Tekes (Tekus) kinship, a dominant power in Torna and Sáros counties.

This loan was still a topic of conversation in 1436, when Helena Jolsvai sent a letter to her distant relative Ladislaus (IV) Csetneki, then administrator of the Knights Hospitaller's monasteries in Budafelhévíz, in this subject.

[59] Among the children of Ladislaus, the marriage of John (III) was the most prestigious; his wife was Clara Nagymihályi from the gens Kaplon, which possessed lands in Northeast Hungary, mainly Ung and Zemplén counties.

Francis (I), the son of Ladislaus (VI) and Catherine tried to acquire property from the lordship of Sólyomkő in Bihar County (today ruins near Aleșd, Romania) in 1479, which was a part of the heritage of his mother and maternal grandmother.

The names of the newly mentioned settlements (e.g. Ochtina, Pétermány or Gacsalk) from the 1318 and 1320 treaties reflect that there were founded by German (Saxon) settlers decades ago, under schultheiß officials invited by Derek and his sons.

When Dominic Bebek handed over the northern portion of the lordship (where the Dobsina stream flows into the Sajó river) to his brother Ladislaus (I) in 1326, the settlement of the area began with the founding of new villages.

[66] Since both John (I) and Peter (I) died without male descendants, and the branch of Nicholas (I) also became extinct by the end of the 14th century (its last offspring was Michael, who was killed in the Battle of Nicopolis in 1396), all of the aforementioned estates were acquired by the Bebek family.

[67] The most populous settlement was Csetnek with 70 porte, followed by Oláhpatak (40), Restér (33), Ardó (31), Rochfalva (30), Gecelfalva (28), Ochtina (28), Rekenye (21), Csákány (16), Gencs (14), Tornova (14), Kötélverő (14), Nagyszlabos (13), Somkút (12), Romokvágása (12), Sajó (10), Sebespatak (10), Pétermány (10), Aranyas (10), Rozlozsnya (8), Dobsina (7), Razimalja (7), Irmes (6) and Fülepháza (4).

[70] After the extinction of the Bebek family in 1567, their estates were escheated to the crown (administered by the Hungarian Royal Chamber or Camera Hungarica) and thereafter were attached to the castle districts of Krasznahorka and Szendrő.

Accordingly, the brothers possessed entirely Csetnek, Dobsina, Berdárka, Nagyszlabos, Feketepatak, Gecelfalva and Pétermány, in addition to estates Irmes (Kisszabos), Tornova and Somkút.

After an agreement with the Lorántfis in 1592, Stephen (II) claimed portions in Csetnek, Tapolca, Tornova, Gencs, Sebespatak, Ochtina, Rekenye, Gecelfalva, Restér, Lekenye, Rochfalva, Rédova, Kisszabos–Irmes, Aranyas, Feketepatak, Felsősajó, Dobsina, Pétermány, Ardó and Márkuska.

The Csetnekis' lands had extensive forests, thus there was enough wood to build mines and process the extracted ore, while the nearby namesake streams at Csetnek and Dobsina, in addition to the upper course of Sajó provided enough hydropower to operate them.

After Queen Mary donated Szolcsány in Nyitra County to Nicholas (V) and his wife in 1389, the Csetnekis acquired interests in the Hrussó lordship too (provoking resistance from the local Tapolcsányi family).

She bequeathed her assets to the Virgin Mary church in Csetnek, her servants and family members, the sons and grandchildren of Ladislaus (II), especially the still unmarried daughters of John (III).

John also recalled that on several occasions he used his wealth to help his brother, who was involved in various losing lawsuits (including the financial compensation of Tamás Bakócz, Bishop of Eger, who threatened to excommunicate Ladislaus).

In the upper room of the late Stephen (II), there were cabinets and an almarium, decorative chests and boxes full of clothes and charters, in addition to coins, guns, swords, shields, armors and harness accessories.

The main artistic source was the Trecento art in Italy which George Bebek became acquainted with when he participated as a general in the Neapolitan campaigns of Louis the Great, and as a Hungarian envoy, he visited Ferrara and Padua.

Repair work continued in the 1460s, the roof above the triumphal arch and main choir was bricked up with net-vaults, similarly to the technique of Peter Parler, by a certain stone carver Simon.
