&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello żeglarz,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Zaleski&lt;/span&gt; is a toponym from &lt;span style=&quot;font-style: italic&quot;&gt;Zalesie&lt;/span&gt; (a lot of villages with this name in Poland). In Polish “beyond, on the other side of the wood”.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nowadays there are 4255 individuals using this surname living in Poland. Detailed map of the surname distribution can be found here: &lt;a href=&quot;https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/Zaleski&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/Zaleski&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Listen how this surname is pronounced in Polish (click on the “Listen” button): &lt;a href=&quot;https://translate.google.pl/#view=home&amp;amp;op=translate&amp;amp;sl=pl&amp;amp;tl=en&amp;amp;text=Zaleski&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://translate.google.pl/#view=home&amp;amp;op=translate&amp;amp;sl=pl&amp;amp;tl=en&amp;amp;text=Zaleski&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sadly &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Dianowski&lt;/span&gt; surname is not described in the &amp;quot;Hoffman's Polish surnames&amp;quot; and other sources. However there are 11 people using this surname in todays Poland, please find the map: &lt;a href=&quot;https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/Dianowski&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/Dianowski&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There could be some changes in spelling, there is e.g. surname &lt;span style=&quot;font-weight: bold&quot;&gt;Danowski&lt;/span&gt; - a toponym from Danowo village in the Podlaskie Province.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Geneteka you can find records where these surnames appear:&lt;br /&gt;
