	Thank Mrs Alan for me! I will have a look. For the time being I have ordered the marriage certificate of Jozef and Mary (!) Not THAT Jozef and Mary! Really looking forward to receiving that! Jozefs relationship to us is quite far away but it was too intriguing for me being the nosey parker I am! Here goes: My husbands, aunts, grandfather, (ish!). Hope that all makes some kind of sense. Will leave an update once the certificate is received. Thank you again, best regards.

	Update: I have received the marriage certificate of Josef and Mary, here goes... Josef Olchawski married Mary Margaret Duff 19 March 1949 Middlesex Josefs father was Jan Olchawski, (was a Master Tailor) Marys father was Francis Nicholas Duff, (was a Coachpainter) First marriage for both. If someone would be kind enough to help locate Josef origins that would be wonderful!!...thank you!

	Have you tried www.polishgeno.com you might find it helpful. Or you could try www.genforum.genealogy.com and go to the Countries list where you'll find Poland. If you discover that he was in the Polish Army you could try writing to the Central Military Archive. I think you'd have to write in Polish though... Centralne Archiwum Wojskowe, ul.
