Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4500]

Hello, can you tell me the origin and meaning of the last name "Pietryga"?

I am researching my great great grandfather Jacob Pietryga, who immigrated to USA in 1902 from Galicia/Poland (possibly from "Turza," but not sure). He married an Agnes Latta (or Lata). I do not know his parents. Also, he was traveling with cousins by the last name "Naja." Any information would be helpful.
