Babadishvili

Babadishvili ( _ka. ბაბადიშვილი; also Babadishi, ბაბადიში) is a Georgian noble family claimed to have sprung off the royal Bagrationi dynasty of Kakheti in the 17th century.

Prince Ioann of Georgia (1768-1830) reports that the Babadishvili descend from the Kakhetian ruler Imām Qulī Khān (1678-1722),Bagrationi, Ioane (1768-1830).

Professor Cyril Toumanoff considers the family to be related to the Beburishvili (ბებურიშვილი), possible descendants of the medieval house of Donauri [Toumanoff, Cyril (1967). "Studies in Christian Caucasian History", p. 269. Georgetown University Press.]

The family were entitled as the princes (tavadi) of the third rank in Georgia, and confirmed as knyaz of the Russian Empire in 1850. [ru icon [http://www.rulex.ru/01020419.htm Бабадышевы] . Russian Biographic Lexicon. Retrieved on January 6, 2008.]
