Ignacy Potocki

Roman Ignacy Potocki, generally known as Ignacy Potocki, was a Polish nobleman, member of the influential magnate Potocki family, owner of Klementowice and Olesin, a politician, statesman, writer, and office holder. He was the Marshal of the Permanent Council in 1778–1782, Grand Clerk of Lithuania from 1773, Court Marshal of Lithuania from 1783, Grand Marshal of Lithuania from 16 April 1791 to 1794. He was not a count. He has sometimes been confused with Ignacy Michal Potocki (1830-1917), who had a count title. In contrast to princely titles, count titles were not granted under Polish law.
