Hi Buttons,
Basing on the Polish main etymological works as Prof. K. Rymut's "Nazwiska Polaków Słownik Historyczno-Etymologiczny" tom. II [The Surnames of Poles...], Prof. Z. Kaleta "The Surname as a Cultural Value and an Ethnic Heritage", etc., the nearest would be:
S~widrowski [fully spelled in Polish as Świdrowski], with Polish first letter S having Polish grammar diacritical mark over the letter, derived from Polish word, and very old name "Świder" - noted in Poland from 1387. The surname Świdrowski is noted from 1478, and derived from the place name Świdrów, province Siedlce, gmina [commune] Dobre, where then the family would be the owner of the place.
So, what we can tell you basing on the surname Świdrowski only:
Surname location and cradle in Poland, basing on the Polish censuses 1990 [Mazovia province], and 2002:
https://nazwiska-polskie.pl/%C5%9Awidrowski
= 50 adults in Poland surnamed Świdrowski, and the surname cradle would be the central Mazovia province of Poland [Lowicz, Gostynin, Lipno, etc.]
The surname cradle from the 15th century:
Świdrów, the base info in Polish, but giving the mapping: http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%9Awidr%C3%B3w
= same Mazovia province of Poland.
In the 19th century the RC parish for this Świdrów was Pniewnik, here is the confirmation with "Slownik Geograficzny", 1880-1902:

= parish Pniewnik website, with addresses and images: http://www.parafiapniewnik.ns48.pl/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=99&Itemid=90
The surname possible other versions: Swidrowski, Świergocki, Świrgolski, Świergolski, Świrgolski, Świerkowski, Świerkocki, etc.
With the best good luck in your invaluable search,
