The Manvydai family (Polish: Moniwid) was a small but influential 15th-century Lithuanian noble family, whose most prominent members were brothers Albertas Manvydas and Jurgis Gedgaudas and their sons Jonas Manvydas and Petras Gedgaudas. The family used the Leliwa coat of arms that were received in the Union of Horodło (1413).[1] They considered Vishnyeva and Zhuprany [be] in present-day Belarus their ancestral estates.[2] In a few decades, the family amassed about 20 larger land holdings with about 2,500 serf households.[3] The family supported Grand Duke Švitrigaila who was deposed in 1432. The last male heir died in 1475 and the family's wealth was inherited by the Radziwiłł family and Alekna Sudimantaitis.[4]
