Do I look Polish? (my picture) [375]
Ah. Well, if any of them have the last names or variants of the surnames Czernecki, Andrulewicz, Uszinsky, Foczko, and Morgiewicz, and possibly Daniłowicz (since Daniłowicz is definitely common), know that:
- Andrulewicz" is exclusively Ashkenazi Jewish (It's a variant of a name that was made up at Stakliskes, Lithuania.). In fact, here's a picture of cousin of mine, Susan Lorraine Kopanski Duane (whose mother was an Androlewicz. May she rest in peace.) from St. Louis, Missouri.

- [So is "Foczko" and "Focko" (It was made up in Warszawa, Radom, and £ódż.). The Foskos of Kentucky and Tennessee are, as far as I know, not ours, by the way (Their "Fosko" comes from "Fusco".).
- If the Czerneckis, Morgiewiczes, and Danilowiczes are all part of the Lipsk, Krasne, etc. group, they're ours.
- My Uszinsky (Ushinsky) branch snuck into Saros megye in Hungary from the Russian Empire.
So, their grandparents and great-grandparents definitely came off of the boat and spoke Slavic languages (at least if they were assimilated and/or Crypto Jews).
