kelkaz 1 | - 19 Feb 2009 #1Hijust wondering if anyone can tell me about the Kaczorowski name?My grandfather came to Australia in the 1940's but all documentation was destroyed and he has since passed away. I dont know if he had any brothers or sisters in australia or poland. All I know is that Kaczorowski means duck!Any help at all would be appreciated!ThanksKellie
Polonius3 994 | 12,367 20 Feb 2009 #2Kaczorowski probably arose as a toponymic nickname for an inhabitant of Kaczorów or Kaczorowo (Drakeville).A kaczor is a drake (male duck).
