| Summary: | The article presents the impact of the January Uprising on the fate of a Polish noble family in the lands of the former Grand Duchy of Lithuania, which had been involved in the independence uprising of 1863. The research method – case study – was used, in order to present the phenomena occurring at that time on the example of a selected Morgiewicz family living in Hanelki farmstead in Lida district of Vilnius governorate. Its members, although not directly involved in the armed struggle, participated in insurrectionary preparations or helped rebel units, for which they were subjected to repression, exile, sequestration and confiscation of property. Studying the fate of this family, it can be noted that the legal acts issued by the Russian authorities in 1863–1864, which introduced severe punishments against those involved in insurgent activities, threatened destruction of Polishness, in Lida district included. Fortunately for the Poles, they were not implemented consistently in the long run. In the aforementioned district, the procedure of the formal confiscation of property was mostly not completed and finally discontinued in 1873 due to the slowness of the Tsarist administration, and the land was returned to many of the original owners or their heirs.
