It does look like the name comes from Radzilow in North-East Poland (Polish spelling here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radzilow). The Polish ending would be -owski, -owska for a lady; the Ukrainian and Belorussian ending, romanised, would be -ovsky or -ovskij. Your spelling could be from any of those countries.
