Genealogy / Looking for my father's family, Roman Rydel or possibly Rydelski [30]
Hi, I'm not sure how much this helps but this is pretty much all I know.
My name is Tomasz, my father's name is Piotr and my grandfather is also named Piotr. My family is originaly from around nowe miasto lubawskie, and I'm not sure if this is true, but I've been told that up untill WW2 our last name was spelled Riedel, allthough I cant confirm that.
My grandfather had two children, Piotr and Robert, they live (woj.mazurskie) and woj.mazurski respectively.
I've been told that someone from my grandfathers side of the family fought during WW2, but if Im not mistaken, they fought on the german side (our dark family shame).
That's all I can think of for now, if you can come up with some more information, for example your fathers home town, his closest relatives, etc. then I can ask around the next time I go down to Poland to visit my dad.
