From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Petrusewicz is a Polish gender-neutral surname of Eash-Slavic origin. Archaic feminine forms: Petrusewiczowna (maiden name), Petrusewiczowa (surname by husband).

It is a patronymic surname derived from the East Slavic given name Petrus', a diminutive of Piotr/Petro/Piatro (Peter).
