Welcome to the Forum bialo13 Smile ,

First, click here: http://polishorigins.com/public/audio/bialoglowicz.mp3 to listen how we pronounce Białogłowicz in Polish. Mind you, there are Polish "ł" instead of "l".

Białogłowicz literally in old Polish means "white-headed"; biało - white, głowicz - headed.

In 2002 there were 160 people by the surname Białogłowicz. Detailed map of the surname deployment can be found on the website here https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/Bia%C5%82og%C5%82owicz .
