Template:Explain significance The Jark Family was family from Rowy, near Bytow, Pomerania, called Jark von Gostkowski. This protestant family can trace their origins from Kashubs of Pomerania. Hans David (Hans David Ludwig Yorck von Wartenburg), to give his identity more a English sound, changed his name from "Jark" to "Yorck" and dropped the "von Gostkowski."
