tips on how to search for information?

folks on this site have been fantastic about sharing information, which is truly appreciated!
however, im curious to better understand where i can find more and more information about my family and its history in poland.
for instance, my grandfathers last name is krysiewicz. i know, thanks to others here, that means "son of Christopher"
i was also told the "wicz" is from northeastern poland. so, how was that determined, where could i have found that type of info, etc?

i am asking so i can do more and more on my own vs constantly asking the members here.
any tips of sites or other sources would be awesome.

thank you!
