Genealogy / Leon Novak - Searching for my Polish granddad! [5]

Hello everyone,

I am German and I found out that I have a polish granddad. His name is Leon Novak, born on: 8.4.1934 near Krakau. I now know that he served the military in November 1956 in schivelbein now swidwin. As I don't speak polish its very hard for me to search him online.

I am going to Poland by the end of August: Does anyone have an idea or tip for me? I might go to the community in swidwin and ask there if they speak English.

Thank you for any ideas,
wilde hilde

Hi Polonius3, thank you for the info! I surely didn't know that. Will make sure to have the name written correctly in any documents.

Hi polishmama

thank you for your feedback. No I don't know where exaxtly in Krakow he was born.
I will ask my grandma if she knows which military service it was and I will get back to you. I know that he has married another woman but I don't whom. The date assumption is correctly he was born on April 8th, 1934. He was the youngest kid of a familiy with 10 children.

I have found out that the ministry of interior in Warsaw gives out the addresses against a small fee, so this what I am trying. I am more than happy for hints. Thank you.
