Genealogy / Burial listings for Polish cemeteries. Where to find them online? [12]

You can not find much online, the Polish government does allow any records that are 100 years or less to be online (privacy issues), I have tried to find my family tree records, one needs patience and a lot of hunting around different websites. I have found some relatives on this cemetery website: nekrologi-baza.pl/nazw/indexnazw.htm ( city of Warsaw),but you really need to go to the State Archives of the city in Poland and pay up so they can look for you, some charge as much as a fee of $200 to $400 for 1 hr + expenses.

Good luck in your search.

Polish Surname spelling

I have been researching my family name:Kęsikowski and have found a website called barbarafamily.eu and their documents are a match to a distant relative called Marcin Kęsikowski (b.1806)who married Josefa Styler(b.1811), they had a daughter called Joanna Florentyna Kęsikowski (b.1831)who married a member of this family. The LDS- family history library is where I got this information, but the barbarafamily site has the marriage document stating her father's name as Marcina Kęsikowskiego? Both parents I think? were not living at time of her marriage.My question is the surname "Kęsikowskiego" is that the original name from which my surname originated? or is that an extended version of "Kęsikowski "in polish? Can anyone please help and explain this? Should I be looking from "Kęsikowskiego" or the shorter version for my family roots? Thank you for your time.
