Janina/Yanina, Zofia/Sofie/Sofia, their names being Kucharska before they married, these two we can't find any trace ,can anyone tell me what would happen to the Poles that were in that part of the country in 1939,Sophie had two boys, don't have names .

Kucharski/a
I am trying to find out about my father's family can anyone tell me the meaning of the name Kucharski and where it originated from thank you.Davina
Not much. The profession is 'kucharz' (jestem kucharzem, I'm a cook) and the surname is Kucharski/a. Polonius3 might know more, but as far as I'm aware there are a lot of people in Poland called Kucharski (I know a few) and there probably isn't any specific geographical connection.
