I'll check into this information, thanks.
Perhaps it's best that I add a little more information about my family.
Kazimierz Lewicki married Helena Krupecka De Rogalla Lewicki (not sure about the spelling). According to my grandfather, they had four children: Kazimierz, Mieczyslaw(my great grandfather) and two daughters. Mieczyslaw joined the Russian Army a little before the Russian Japanese War in 1904, he was stationed in a war prison in Syberia and was awarded a silver medal with the face of Nicholas II. He came to Brazil with Kazimierz (his brother) in 1906, they arrived in Rio de Janeiro.
My grandfather estimates that my greatgrandfather, Mieczyslaw was born in the 1880's.
It seems to me that if my greatgreatgrandfather is indeed this famous beekeeper, than I would be related to this Stanislaw you send me the link to. I wish I had a better way to confirm it. (over the internet, I mean, being in Brazil limits my options a bit)
Thank you for your help, if you can find anything else, I would be really grateful.
I found an article on the Kazimierz Lewicki from the Museum
culturaapicola.com.ar/wiki/index.php/Kazimierz_Lewicki
But I'm still very confused on this... I'm really starting to convince myself that there were two Kazimierz living in Warsaw at the same time working with bee-keeping. The article doesn't say anything about spouses, children or how he died.
My grandfather tells me that my Kazimierz went blind from a blow to the head, he fell of his horse or carriage. I believe he died a few years after going blind.
