Post subject: Surname: Romatowski
I've looked everywhere and now I need some help. I can trace my family back to my great-great-grandad, Julius Jacob Romatowski (born 1874 in supposedly Przeros, Poland, but I think it was a written error and i think should be Przewóz), but I've never found what the name means. And as a side note, if anyone can find any relatives before him I would be grateful!

Hi JRomatowski,
Przerośl suggested by Gilberto fits to the distribution of the name, north-east Poland
