Could some kind person give me some advice as I have to write to a lady in Poland. Her family name is Kowalczyk but I know that sometimes there is a feminine version of polish surnames. Do I address her as Mrs Kowalczyk or is there a feminine version of this?

Many thanks :-))

Mrs. Kowalczyk is correct. Not all polish names have feminine version , mostly just ones ending in -ski, the feminine version of those ends in -ska.
