[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Lubian / Lieske - Nowy Dwor, Neumann

[Brigitte Neumann]

Thank you for this explaning. I am just reading in the churchbooks from Nowe
Dwor and I found per exampel "Anny z Pletzow". I thought, that she came from
a village named Pletzow, which I could not find. Now it is clear, that it is
Anny Pletz.

By the way, I found a lot of Neumann in this churchbooks (ev.) If someone is
interested, pleas let me know.

Brigitte

Lieskow and Domkow are the genitive forms of Lieske and Domke.  One can
think of this as being like saying "of the Lieske family" or "of the Domke
family."  In records written in Polish, one often sees the genitive used in
records to give a woman's maiden name.  For example, "Maryanna z Lieskow
Domke" would mean Maryanna's maiden name is Lieske, and she is married to a
man named Domke.

In older Polish (and some Latin) records, one also sees surnames with -owa
or -owna added (i.e., Lieskowa or Lieskowna).  The -owa ending indicates a
married woman.  The -owna ending indicates an unmarried woman.

While -owa and -owna seem to have been the most common endings signalling
these meanings, they weren't the only ones.  There is a good chart of these
on page 150 of Malgorzata Nowaczyk, "Poszukiwanie Przodkow: Genealogia Dla
Kazdego," (Warsaw: Panstwowy Instystut Wydaniczy, 2005) ISBN 83-06-02950-X.
