Genealogy / Żeglicki genealogy [3]

I'd love to research my family name - Żeglicki

Here's what I know.

Grandfather: Zbigniew Zeglicki, born 24 October 1920 in Rzeszów, Poland, died 19 November 1989 in the UK
Parents: Kazimierz Żeglicki, born 4 February 1895, died 7 February 1958 and Honorata Kowal
Paternal grandparents: Pawel Żeglicki and Bogumiła Tokarzewska (Pawel may have married twice, second wife called Maria?)
Maternal grandparents: Mikolaj Kowal and Franciszka Gruszecka
Maternal great-grandparent: Maria Rerutkiewicz (born c.1843 died c.1940)

Grandmother: Kazimiera Sudacka/Sudecka, born 13 January 1923 in Chełmno, Poland, died 27 June 1993 in the UK
Parents: Jozef/Jozej Sudacki/Sudecki and Zofia Kloniecka (born 12 February 1903, died 23 January 1973 in the UK)

This is all my family knows.

I do have a surviving great aunt (my grandfather's sister) Maria Stenzel nee Żeglicka, who is now 90. Her husband was Leon Arkadiusz Stenzel (12/1/1913-11/10/1996). One of her daughters, Bogumiła Stenzel is my godmother. Her husband is Tomasz Maramaros. Tomasz's mother is Teresa Mycielska - I can find her ancestry very easily... follow this link: sejm-wielki.pl/b/dw.59640

Any help on my side of the family would be great! Thanks ;)

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4501]

My surname is Żeglicki

I'd love to know where it came from - all I know is that my grandfather was born in Rzeszów in 1920 and there may be some family in that area still, but don't know if his ancestors were from that area as I believe his father (my great grandfather) was in the Polish Army and may have moved around. I know at the outbreak of WW2 my grandfather lived in Wilno (now Vilnius, Lithuania)
