Aleksander Koniecpolski (1555–1609[1]) was a voivode (palatine) of Sieradz, a staunch supporter of king Sigismund III Vasa of the House of Vasa.
He was the son of Stanisław Przedbór Koniecpolski and Elżbieta Ligzianka (relative of hetman Jan Tarnowski).[2] His wife was Anna Sroczycka, daughter of Stanisław Sroczycki, voivode of Kamieniec. This marriage brought into the Koniecpolscy family large estates at Podolia.
He had six children:
- Stanisław Koniecpolski, the great and famous hetman, voivode of Sandomierz and semi-official 'viceroy of Ukraine'
- Krzysztof Koniecpolski (chorąży koronny, voivode of Belz from 1641)
- Remigiusz Koniecpolski, bishop of Chełm (died in 1640)
- Jan Koniecpolski (castellan and voivode of Sieradz)
- Przedbor Koniecpolski (died in 1611)
- Anna Aleksandra Koniecpolska (died in 1651), married to Kasper Doenhoff (1588–1645). She was a great-grandmother of king Stanisław Leszczyński of Poland.
