Any information on these three names would be greatly appreciated. Families emigrated from Poland in late 1800s and settled in Chicago.

Thank you.

All the surnames you listed are researchable. Indeed, the Wielkopolska (Poznań) region seems to be the Jarentowski ancestral stronghold. For more information on all the names please contact research60@gmail.com

You need the research for finding the family or for recovering the nationalization?

being in Poland is just question of call phones to find all about the families,sometimes is needed to go to the local churches for the documents,not a big deal

if you need help you can write me, remember that is needed all possible information,places ,names,(correctly spell)

Thadzinska cannot be Polish. TH does not exist in the language.

Well, I am not surprised about Thadzinska. All I know for sure is...what looks like it may be an "H" ... iszewska But may or may not be an H. I really think the document I have is a baptismal affidavit for entry into the U. S. Father's name is clearly Jan Makowski(a) and mother's first name is Catherine. I think a village may be Liesiec (?) I can't find them anywhere!

There are at least 4 localities called Lisiec in today's Poland -- three of them are neighbouring villages in western Poland's Wielkopolska region. The fourth is in Lower Silesia, one of the recovered lands.

I know my Grandad came to Englnad with his brother during WW2, his name was Leon Jarentowski, from what I can make out the rest of his family that stayed behind in Poland died during the war. I was wondering if his brother had a family after he returned to Poland and that maybe I have some relatives there. Any help would be much appreciated.

JARENTOWSKI: probably topo nick from Jarentowskie Pole (Jerry Field), Jarantów (Jeremiahville) or similar; root was most likely derived from the first name Jeremiasz.

DURA: probably from dureń (fool) or durny (foolish); a good name for the village idiot!

RYBARCZYK: occupational patronymic = fisherman’s son.

MAKOWSKI: root-word mak (poppy); topo nick from Maków or Makowo (POppyville).

BIELOWSKI: root-word biel (whitness); topo ncic from Bielów or Bielowo (Whiting, Whitfield, Whiteville).

WOJDA: from the Hungarian word for wojewoda (voivod = provincial governor).

My Jarentowski came to America much earlier--in or around 1890. I have not been able to find any links to any Jarentowskis anywhere in the world. My grandfather's name was Francizek.

The Jarentowski ancestral nest appears to be in western Poland's Wielkopolska region, notably in and around the city of Kalisz (84 users). Smaller clusters are found to the north of there in northern Poland's Kujawy region, particularly its Bydgoszcz-Toruń area (56).
Since Jarentowski is not a very common surname, there's a good chance you are related to all or most of them.
13 people spell their name Jarętowski — 8 in the Bydgoszcz area and 5 in or around Kalisz.
