telefonitika 25 Nov 2007 / #2Tatarewiczunusual spelling?Is this a common name in Poland? or a possible (common, that happens) spelling mistake?
OP Tatarewicz 2 | 11 10 Jan 2008 / #4Tatarewicz seems to be a common name in Poland according to Grzegorz. Easy to pronounce and spell from the sound of it, except for Anglos and and other non-Slavs, so I don't think it was mis-spelled ever since being assigned by the regent's representative eons ago. I suppose if we were Jews it might end with a wycz or a wych. Never thought of asking parents or relatives about the derivation but I presume it may have something to do with do with the Crimean Tatars (Tartars in English). Or just picked from what was left on the list by my great, great...grandfather.

OP Tatarewicz 2 | 11 12 Jan 2008 / #6PolishgirltxActually just Googling tatarewicz brings up 6700 references, mostly scientific papers , particularly by American astronomer Joe, but also including many of my political posts on Liberty Forum , Aljazeera.com, and other sites. There's even a reference to a family crest, which is probably a scam, since coat-of-arms, etc., are usually the prerogative of royalty. Also seem to be a few scholars by this name in Poland, even a Pawel but I don't think they are relations. Have to try to trace back through dad's old letters. Paul
