Origin of Burachovich name
The last name Burachovich belongs to the "patronymic" family name type. It comes from the Jewish male name Baruch which means "blessed" in Hebrew. Burach is a version of this name. This way of pronouncing the name existed in Volyn gubernia of the Russian empire (today's Ukraine) and it is at the origin of the last name Burachovich.
The ending "ovich" on the territory of Ukraine and Belorussia was usually added to the family name formed from a personal name.

We would like to invite you to help us ressurect the history of your family, to link up the branches of your family tree and to find relatives abroad. Among Jews, due to the manner in which family names were acquired and passed down, there are relatively few people who, although unrelated, bear the same surname as one another. The majority of Jewish people who bear a certain family name can usually trace their roots back to a common ancestor about 5-6 generations back. Further, when two Jewish people bear the same surname, they are usually members of the same broader 'clan', descended of the same extended family.Resurrect your History - for he, who owns the Past also owns the Future.
