Hello, is there any information about the surname Kendik please?

I have two last names I'd like to know the meaning of, Dombec (Dombyk) and Parasczuk (Paraszczynsk).

The second is my Great Grandmother's Maiden name which was changed when the family came into Ellis Island from the longer version to Parasczuk.

Kendik: from Proto-Slavic kąd-, kędr-, later kądek "curl, lock, bride's hair after cutting." Currently, 28 Kendiks live in Poland: 27 in Nysa and 1 in Krosno.

Dombec: root word dąb "oak." Currently, 4 Dombecs live in Poland: 2 in Nowy Dwór Gdański and 2 in Elbląg.

No Dombyk, but Dombik "little oak." 11 Dombiks live in Poland: 6 in Kluczbork and 5 in Namysłów.

No Parasczuk, but Paraszczuk: probably from the name Paramon used in Eastern Orthodox Church, from Greek Parámonos "faithful." Polonized Ukrainian name. Currently, 138 Paraszczuks live in Poland, most in Krasnystaw on the border with Ukraine.

Paraszczynsk/Paraszczyński: Currently, no one uses this name in Poland.

Can anyone tell me the meaning of my last name, Bajdo? Both of my parents are from Poland. My mothers maiden name was Woloszyn - I'm not sure of the spelling. Any help would be appreciated!

Bajdo: first recorded in 1789, from Old Polish bajda "blabber, gossipmonger." No apparent meaning in contemporary Polish. Currently, 128 Bajdos live in Poland.
Woloszyn: from Slavic first name Wolimir or from verb woleć "to prefer" or from noun wola "will." Currently, only 4 Woloszyns live in Poland.

If originally spelled Wołoszyn: first recorded in 1359, from Wołoch "a member of pastoral people in Carpathian Mountains of Romanian origin. Wołochs were mistakenly thought to be from Italy, hence the name of Italy and Italians in Polish is Włochy. Currently, 6682 Wołoszyns live in Poland.

Could also be from "Działka" as in a small plot of allocated land, a parcel, so Działecki was someone who had been given a parcel.

No. Działecki is from działać "to do," not from dzielić "to divide" or działka "a parcel of land." Even names such as Działek, Działko, Działkiewicz, Działkowicz, Działkowski, Działkowiec come from działać "to do."

short name of " Data"

Data: from datek "offering, dole, charity" (from Proto-Slavic dati), from data "date" (from Latin data). Currently, 1691 Datas live in Poland.

Does anyone know anything about Daberkow?

My ancestors came from Płoty, Gryfice County, West Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland. They were originally from a village called Dobrkowo in £obez County.

If you don't stick to the original names of towns and villages that were in use when your ancestors were alive, you will never be successful with your research.


Your ancestors came from Plathe an der Rega, Kreis Regenwalde, Deutsches Reich. Some of the churchbooks are available at the LDS.


They were originally from a village called Daberkow.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landkreis_Regenwalde

You think they were German?

I wonder if they were Polish or German. Daberkow probably comes from the village name.
