See the Janta surname and Janta Połczyński surname entries.
One of the branches of the Janta/Jantha/Jant/Jent/Jęt family.
A member of this family was given a portion of the village of Lipienice (modern Lipnica) in 1460 by Kazimierz IV of Poland in return for participation in victories over the Teutonic Knights during the Thirteen Years War. The grant was confirmed in 1526 by Zygmunt I because the original document was destroyed in war.
