Genealogy / I would like to find out about my grandmother, Stanislawa Mikanowicz [7]

Hi,
With regards to your post about Stanislawa Mikanowicz, sadly I know nothing of her directly, but my father in law was called Antoni Mikanowicz
and was born in January 1920 in SKRAGI. He fought with the 5th Kresowa infantry division during WWII, which I understand was largely formed
from Polish men who were captured and interned by the Russians. He came to England after the war and settled in Somerset.
I understand his mother died in childbirth, and was possibly called Maria or MarJa, and his father re-married. Could there possibly a connection here?
Could your father and my father in law be half brothers??
I know he had a sister called Janina (married name KLIMUK) who survived the war and had two sons, who I believe were called STASIO and EUGENIUSZ.

I am hoping that all this may be more than coincidental!!!!
