It's probably the same name with a Lithuanian ending.

Some of them are from the kaszuby area of poland so im not sure how much the spelling is rendered in those reigons compared to other areas of poland.

One I found was this the names may not be accurate spelling because its from church records. There were no polish preists here when they arrived and I belive french preists wrote alote of it down..

Petrus LAZYNSKI b: in Kalisz, Lipusz, Poland

Anna LYNYINSKA (prolly not correct spelling)

Valerie LEZYNSKI b: 1877 in Poland

Michael LOUZYNSKI b: in Lipusz, Poland (definatley a latin who wrote this last name in the records "OU" is probibly wrong.

Lezynski - Lazynski - the last surname have possible? a connection to Laszczynski - a very
seldom name.

Leszczynski = Leszcz = bream or Leszczyna = A Hazelbush...............

Leshinski - sounded more jewish.

Not jewish no , it is a polish surname but when they arrived to america they changed the spelling so people could pronounce better. This was very common here! some names I know of that have been rendered:


Jakubowski = yakabuski
printz=prince
luckaswicsz - luckasavitch
dombrowski- dombroskie
Kulas=coulas
biernacki= bernatski
lipinski,lepinski,lapinski


etc. It goes on which makes geneology that much harder to trace.

Hi,

My 2 times great grandmother was Magdelena von Lesczynska (priest's spelling in Poland) daughter of Piotr von Lesczynski. They were from the Kaszuby area from Kniszyn, Lesno, Chojnice, Poland . The above is the way the priests spelled it then in America it became Lesczinski. Again, relying on spelling for the place names also.

Can't tell you about the Lithuanian connection. The records I have so far for Magdelena and her father, Piotr are for the 1700s and early 1800s in Poland.

The name Leszczyna means Hazeltree and can be spelled a lot of different ways

as in Polish ,Ukrainian , Russian , and the Slavic Languages.

Our name is Liszczyna as it was translated that way on arrival by my parents in 1948 to Canada.

If you find the people similar from the related parental description, check out all the reconds in Ellis Island documentation in USA that are availabe..Dutch and Mormans archives have excellent records and places where your family originated.

I had great success..

Thanks

Zena

Maria Lesczińska ( Leszczyńska ) Queen of France....


Also spelled on french:Lasczińska - so lescziński must be originally Leszczyński!

Lescinskis appears to be the Lithuanian translation of Leszczyński. The latter incidentally was the name of one of Poland's kings. For more information contact research60@gmail.com
