Snačić family

The Snačić family, sometimes called Svačić and Svadčić, was one of the twelve noble tribes of Croatia, mentioned in the Pacta conventa and Supetar Cartulary.

[1][2] The earliest possible known ancestor of the genus is župan Juraj Snačić, one of the twelve noblemen mentioned in Pacta conventa (1102).

In 1343 was recorded certain Gojslav, son of a person called Prodi de Saucichorum in the Klis županija.

Some historians also assume that nobleman Domald of Sidraga (c. 1160–1243) was a member of the family, but this cannot be reliably proven.

[3] In all likelihood, the Snačić family went extinct patrilineally after the death of Ban Ivan III Nelipić in 1435, and their heirdoms were given by king Sigismund to Matko and Petar Talovac.
