Thank you very much Andrzej
I have been wondering if he took part in IIWW and where is his grave.

[Claymes]

He was my great grandfather and it is truth what's said above- thanks that I have found out some new facts abot him

[jaxmon]

Hello Clymes,
Do you know what happened to him after he left 14 PU Jazlowieckich? Any other informations?
Regards,
Simon

[Claymes]

Personally I don't remember. He was a father of my grandfather that died when I was 8 but my grandmother (my grandfather's wife) mentioned him a few times. I can ask her if she remember more details. How urgently you need this information?
Btw, may I ask, why do you collect these informations about him?

[jaxmon]

No rush, whenever you feel comfortable. But, if it is too personal for you, then don't provide any additional information. I respect other people's privacy

[Claymes]

Atm I can tell you that he lived in Stanisławów - it was Polish city near Lwów (before the II WW), but now it lies on area that belongs to Ukraine. My mother has a pre-war book - I am not sure but it contains census from Polish areas and as I remember, I found him there (ofc based on my grandmother's words). Maybe it will be some clue for you. I may ask my grandmother for more details but I will visit her in about a month.

Could you tell me why you gather these informations?

[Claymes]

Oh, I forgot to tell you, that as I remember, my grandmother told me about a process called "parceling" due to, as a child, she moved to northern part of Poland. I Think that the same process was applied to my grandfather so probably my great grandfather left Stanisławów and settled with his children near my family sides.

Do you know what happened to Col. Szuszkiewicz after he left 14 Pulk Ulanow Jazlowieckich? Did he retired? Did he took part in II WW?
I am looking for informations on him, because I have a souvenir given to him by ulans of 14 PU.
