Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the genealogy of the original medieval noble family from Hubice in the Žitny ostrov region, the Gombais. The research was based mainly on two sources: the charter of palatine Nicolas Zsamboki from 11 November 1347 and the judge royal Jacob Szepesi issued on 7 December 1377, which provide the most important data about the topic. The first known member of the family was comes Kumpurd mentioned in 1279. The research uncovered another three generations of his successors. The last living member died without an heir between 1372 and 1374. Shortly after that, a certain Jacob Literate and Michael Chuchaak acquired the properties of the family. The paper also tries to reveal their identities and families although it is not its primary goal.
