Rynkiewicz Family History & Genealogy

History

Family hearsay:


 The Renkiewicz/Rynkiewicz family originally comes from the Sokólka area near to Bialystok.


 A landlord Bialosuknia brought with him to Mscichy two brothers. One Jan Renkiewicz stayed in Mscichy and the Second brother, name unknown was taken by the landlord to another farm estate. This area is also unknown?


 Conclusions:


 I think that this story can be true. The Bialosuknia family used to own the Mscichy estate. It’s possible that one of the brothers was Jan Renkiewicz died on 12 Apr 1849.


Originally, the Bialosuknia family came from the Mooki area. I assume that Jan Rynkiewicz and Wikoria married in the Mooki area as well as parents of Antonina Renkiewcz nee Modzelewska. You will see that updated family tree that the father of Antonina, Antoni Modzelewski was born in Bialosuknie. The village name of Bialosuknie was named after the Bialosuknia family. So, I think that our further focus could be on the Monki area (the Goniadz parish vital records).


 Jan Rynkiewicz when he was a 16 year old man was obliged to work for a landlord of Mscichy for five days per week.


 I also supposed that Michal Rynkiewicz born abt. 1815 and Piotr Renkiewicz born abt. 1825 had a sister Monika Renkiewicz who was married to Józef Kukowski. That Józef Kukowski died in 1862 in Mscichy. .

Name Origin

As to the meaning of the words: Ryn, ki, wic. The word "Ryn" can mean a place, settlement, castle or "House" from which we come from or a person with this family name derives. The word "kie" surely has an ancient Slavonic origin and can be derived from the ancient word: "kej", "kiej" meaning where, where you go, where you are from, "where you come from". In Poland, I still use the word highlanders, and in the Czech language because it is a language that also has old Slavic roots and many ancient words have survived in it. The ancient word "wic" can also have many meanings, and could for example have come from the word "wić" meaning: message, word, or other words: "flagellum" it was in ancient Slavic times news, news, for example about an attack enemy or mobilization to defend, and place incidents, et cetera. These are just my observations and assumptions, but one would have to look for the truth with the linguistic experts. And now a bit of a joke, a bit seriously. Maybe after translating it was so, on the query: "Where are you from?", (Where did you come from)? There was an answer: from Ryn {from where the word brings (arrives), (where is my place, origin)} Or maybe this way: "I come from Ryn." And today it probably would be: "I

Polska:

Janek. Co do znaczenia słów: Ryn, kie, wic. Słowo: "Ryn" może oznaczać miejsce, osadę, gród lub "Ród" z którego się wywodzimy lub wywodzi osoba o tym rodowym nazwisku. Słowo: "kie" na pewno ma pochodzenie dawne słowiańskie i może wywodzić się od pradawnego słowa: "kej", "kiej" oznaczające: gdzie, dokąd idziesz, skąd idziesz, "skąd pochodzisz". W Polsce chyba jeszcze stosuję te słowo górale, oraz w języku czeskim bo to jest język który też ma stare słowiańskie korzenie i w nim przetrwało jeszcze wiele pradawnych słów. Prastare słowo: "wic" może również mieć wiele znaczeń i mogło na przykład pochodzić od słowa : "wić" oznaczającego: wiadomość, wieść, lub inne słowa: "wici" to w pradawnych słowiańskich czasach były roznoszone wieści, wiadomości, na przykład o ataku wroga lub mobilizacji do obrony, i tego zdarzenia miejsca, et cetera. To są tylko moje wywody i przypuszczenia, ale trzeba by było poszukać prawdy u fachowców językoznawców. A teraz troszkę żartem, troszkę serio. Może po przetłumaczeniu to było tak, że na zapytanie: "Skąd pochodzisz?", (skąd się wywodzisz)? Była odpowiedź: z Ryn {(skąd wieść niesie (przybywa), (gdzie moje miejsce, pochodzenie)}. A może tak: "z Ryn pochodzę wiadomo". A dziś pewnie brzmiało by to tak: "pochodzę z Ryn". To tylko przypuszczenia ale może jest też w tym prawda. Pozdrawiam. Janusz Rynkiewicz
