Nicholas II, Baron (born as Miklós Monoky de Monok; ca. 1580-1590s-1644)[2] was a Hungarian nobleman and the last powerful Lord of Monok, holding the title Baron at the time of his death. He was a military officer[3] who served in the defense of the Kingdom of Hungary against the Ottoman Empire.[4]
Early life[edit]
Nicholas' father was John III, Lord of Monok, and the exact mother of Nicholas is unknown since John III had three wives over the course of his life.[5] The Monok dynasty was deeply involved in the military of the Kingdom of Hungary by this point in time, John III served in the military for the last five years of his life, John III's final military service occurring during the youth of Nicholas.[6]
Military service[edit]
The Monok family at that point had a strong, active military tradition, even John III (d. 1598), Nicholas II's father, was the Captain of the castle of Fülek in 1593.[5] The military tradition would continue when, in 1607, Nicholas II was made the Captain of Ónod,[6] he fought against the Turks several times and thus acquired the title of Baron of Monok, later achieving Baronship through his connections and alignment with King Ferdinand II of Hungary, consisting of service in the military and holding an administrative position.[7]
Baronship[edit]
On August 16th, 1625, Nicholas II (d. 1643) received the title of Baron with a red seal from King Ferdinand II of Hungary, the title was hereditary and thus went to himself and his family, allowing for other family members to inherit the title.[7]
That same day, King Ferdinand II granted a Fiúsítás (in Latin: praefectio), the allowance of a daughter to be made a son for the purposes of inheritance in succession,[8] to Nicholas II, the titles, estates, properties, or lands listed in this document as owned by, thereby being be bound to, the successors of Nicholas II. The official list of titles, estates, properties, or lands in the document are: Abaúj, Bekech, Dob, Feőduar, Geleb, Golop, Harang, Isepp, Inguar, Lask, Lazon, Lucz, Meggiaszszo, Mihaly, Monok, Nagyzilua, Olah, Sáros, Strasa-Vyeör, Szentlörincz, Szada, Szabolcs, Tarcza, and Zemplén.[9] Among his children, born to Anna Csetneki de Csetnek, was his only son, János, who died in 1643.[5]
King Ferdinand II granted Nicholas II the lands of or properties in Abaúj, Alsobereczki, Feketehegy, Georgy, Hoszszuhegy, Kőuesd, Szőlőhegy, Thokay, Zemplén, and Vyhel, on September 15, 1625.[10]
Legacy[edit]
As a result of Nicholas' only son dying and his brothers have no male heirs,[11] the Monoky estates went to the husband of Anna, Nicholas' daughter.[12] His daughter was the wife of Mátyás Andrássy Csikszentkirályi, thus the Andrássy family also inherited a substantial amount of the wealth and properties of the Monoky.[13][14]
