[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Polonized German Names

[Gary Gomes]

I am trying to track my Malachowski relatives with little immediate success.

Do you have some reason to believe that MALACHOWSKI being a polonisation of
GROEN(S) or GREN(S) or KRAHN(S) or (K)GREIN(S)?

Hello,

in my family I have ZIELINSKI being a polonisation of GRUENING. "Zielony" is
the Polish word for the colour "green".

Regards, Annegret

and

or KRAHN(S) or (K)GREIN(S) (which have the first name Quirin as root) 
?
