Jaroszewy was a private church village within the Polish Crown, administratively located in the Tczew County in the Pomeranian Voivodeship, owned by the monastery in Pelplin.
During the German occupation of Poland, in October 1939, the Germans deceitfully ordered a formal meeting for local Polish farmers at a local school. 46 farmers were then arrested and transported to the nearby village of Mestwinowo and murdered there by the SS and Selbstschutz. In November 1939, the Germans expelled 76 Poles from the village.
