Hunyady de Kéthely

The House of Hunyady de Kéthely (German: Hunyady von Kéthely) is an Austro-Hungarian noble family whose members occupied important positions in the Empire. Their coat of arms was recognized in 1792 when the family received the title of Count in Hungary and in 1797 when they received the title of Imperial Count from Emperor Francis II. Although with the same name the family was not connected to Hunyadi family which ruled in Hungary in the 15th and the beginning of the 16th century.[1]
