Looking for some Information - my Polish Father

Hi Folks
I am trying to find some details of my father and any history.
His name was Jan Victor Bober. He is now deceased and the last years of his life was in the UK
I know he had a brother who lived in Poland. There was never any mention of names at all.
I have no family history at all on my fathers side and trying to find any information.
Cheers

Hi Good Folks

Thank you for replying to my post :) much appreciated and all the information. It opens another door for me to check things out.

It got me thinking that maybe is name was slightly changed over the years for some reason. I have a copy of his death certificate and it states he was born in Suchowola, Lubelskie. Poland in 1920. Hopefully I can get a birth certificate from where he was born which might show his parents names.

A polish man told me that the name Bober would have definitely been shortened and Ski would have been removed for some reason. Janusz Wiktor names for him makes sense i feel, and i like the sound of them :)

Cheers
and good wishes
