History
In the interwar period, Laskowszczyzna was administratively located in the Sokółka County in the Białystok Voivodeship of Poland. According to the 1921 census, the village had a population of 135, entirely Polish by nationality and Catholic by confession.[2]
Following the invasion of Poland in September 1939, the village was first occupied by the Soviet Union until 1941, and then by Nazi Germany until 1944.
