Thanks Polonius3 for this information about the origins of the names of the three people (mother, father and son aka james) it was a long shot, all a long time agp
Gerard Londkowski died on 15.05.1991 and his wife Maria died on 22.03.1973. Both are buried in one grave in the Footscray Cemetery. Their son Zdzisław was born in 1947 in Europe (probably in Germany). We know that Zdzisław was married to Anne. My great-grandmother kept contact with Gerard to his death. We have no news about Zdzisław.

Sie hatte lange Zeit Briefkontakt zu ihrem Bruder in Australien. Leider gibt es kein Zeichen Ăźber den Verbleib von seinem Sohn Zdzislaw.
