Hi Tony,
I'am going to upload photos of some of the 1863 Uprising Veterans, I started by checking their Names against the Puchalski/Wawrzynski Book and guess what so far I have found 3 mistakes with regards to the Christian Names of the recipients of the Independence Cross with Swords.
I thought that I might be wrong, if I was I would hold my hands up and say so.
But I have checked through the Rocznik Oficerski for 1923, 1924, 1928, 1932.
Guess what I was right I will give the following examples:
Number:14 on the list is Jakub Bogdanowski, the Rocznik Oficerski list's him as Jozef in all 4 Volumes.
Number:30 on the list is Tadeusz Chmielinski, the Rocznik Oficerski list's him as Tomasz in all 4 Volumes.
Number: 36 on the list is Andrzej Cielicki, the Rocznik Oficerski list's him as Aleksander in all 4 Volumes.
The 1923 Volume: Pages:37-67
The 1924 Volume: Pages: 86-113
The 1928 Volume: Pages: 859-874 (this list's Veterans of 1831,1848,1863)
The 1932 Volume: Pages: 917-920.
I have not the time to check through every name, but it makes you wonder how many more mistakes have been made.
I will list all the photographs of the 1863 Veterans who where awarded the Cross of Indpendence with Swords.
So watch this space, any way I have taken enough of your time already.
Best wishes for the New Year to you and your family Tony.
Andrew
