Natalia Potocka
Polish noble
Natalia Sanguszkowa (née Potocka; 19 March 1807 – 17 November 1830) was a Polish noblewoman and member of the prominent Potocki family as the daughter of Aleksander Stanisław Potocki and his wife, Anna Tyszkiewicz. Natolin Park and Palace in Warsaw were named after her.
On 14 May 1829, in Warsaw, Natalia married Prince Roman Sanguszko, the son of the vice-brigadier of the National Cavalry from Sławuta. They had a daughter, Maria Klementyna Sanguszko (1830-1903), who married Count Alfred Józef Potocki on 18 March 1851 in Sławuta.
Potocka was awarded the Order of the Starry Cross. Shortly after Natalia's birth, the Potocki family renamed their estate (Bażantarnia) to Natolin in her honor, which today is a residential neighborhood in Warsaw's Ursynów. Natalia died a year after her marriage and a few months after giving birth to her daughter. Her monument-sarcophagus, created by Ludwik Kauffmann and funded by Natalia's father, Aleksander Stanisław Potocki, between 1834 and 1838, is located in the Natolin Park.

Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Natalia Potocka”, the useful work is to connect “polish noble” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 8, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6968070. VIAF identifies the subject as 302766551. 1 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1807, 1830, 1829 and 1903.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
