The Baranowski family took their surname from the village of Baranowo, located in the former district of Kościanski of the Poznań Province,^[5] the nests of the Baranowski family of the Łodzia coat of arms, to which the Jerzykowski family were related on the distaff side. The Baranowski family were mentioned in the armorial of Bartosz Paprocki.^[6]

The oldest source certificates concerning the family

• The oldest known records about Baranów come from 1387. It was then that Paweł Naram from Baranów, along with his sons Bogusław and Naram, was in a dispute with Jan from Zbąszyń, the castellan of Łęczyca, about 27 fines for surety. This year, Bogusław from Baranów, son of Naram, sued Bodzęta from Karczew (near Grodzisk).
