In the US a name change would be done from (Dybrowski) Dąbrowski to Dombrowski to keep the pronunciation the same, which using Dabrowski did not. Sometimes the person preparing the ship manifest made the change, and the new spelling was retained by the immigrant.
Definition:
From the term da~browa, meaning "oak grove," this popular Polish surname can be interpreted as meaning "from the oak grove." Alternatively, the surname may also have been bestowed on individuals from any one of dozens of Polish villages named Dabrowa.
