Czeski stands for czech. The surname may indicates on the origins of your family, someone who came from Czech and setteled on a place. But it could have happend very long time ago mayby even in the time when your ancestor didn't have exact surname but only a name plus place of origin so locals could gave him a nickname czeski. It's possible.
Good luck

I'm wondering if anyone is knowledgeable about the surname Czeski or have any Czeski family in their tree. I have three siblings in my tree, Martin, Andreas, and Maria. They were married in the 1880s in different locations in Wielkopolski and all three list Johann Czeski and Agnes Kowalska as parents. Respectively there marriages were in 1880 in Lubosz, 1883 in Lwówek, and 1888 in Pobiedziska. I know the first two locations are near each other, so I'm wondering if the family originates there. I just can't find any birth or baptism records for them, or a marriage or death record for the parents. Do you think they could have a Czech origin with a surname like that?
