Origin of Ski Total Records: 63  Origin of Ski, Meaning of Ski Origin: site devoted to history, origin and genealogy of Maternowski surname. The website mostly deals with the Russian branch of the family from mid-18th century. Surnames: Maternowski Submitted by: Denis Maternowski Origin of Ski, Meaning of Ski Origin: Two Hoskins were among the Norman invaders who accompanied William the Conquerer as he overran King Harold's army late in 1066. The name Hoskins is found predominantly in the Suffolk/London section of Southeastern England. The main Virginia Hoskins clan descends from Bartholomew Hoskins who came to Virginia from England in 1614. He was a son of John Hoskins, barrister and member of Parliament who committed funds to the settlements in Virginia by 1606. Bartholomew appears to have had a brother named Bennet or Bennett Hoskins who may have emigrated to eht eastern shore of area of Virginia/Maryland some years later, but that is conjectural and lacking proof at this time. Another Hoskins family may have arisen in New England as well. The Virginia Hoskins regard Higham Castle near Cumberland, England as their ancestral home, and their coat of arms is identical to that at Higham Castle.

Hoskins Origin of Ski, Meaning of Ski Origin: Majewski was the surname born by seven major Polish families, which were septs of the clans Dosluga, Jastraebiec, Lew, Labeda, Nalcez, Zadora, and Starykon.

I've been searching for the answer to this question since 1999. I have been told by a native Pole living in Chicago that the name means "to break through, move forward," especially in a military connotation ie...to cause an opponents' rout. This explanation also bears a close resemblence to the story of the Napiers of Scotland's name origin mythology. Is there a link. Charlie Napier of the Napier Clan Society disclaims any link for lack of evidence. However, the stories are so similar it implies a possible connection, especially with the influx of Scot men at arms into the area in the late 1500's. Scholars of the area readily acknowledge the possibility, while Charlie is still holding out for "concrete" evidence, which may or may not exist.
