Law / Textile City/ Area in Poland [5]

Merged: Textile Industry in Poland - Is it hard to have a design made and exported?

I have heard the textile industry in Poland is good. I have a design for hunting gloves I would like to have made somewhere other than China.

They are made from jersey material (commonly brown in the US, they are light weight working gloves).
Details and pictures can be emailed later.
Is it hard to have work done in Poland and exported?
Any help is appreciated.

Genealogy / Looking for city of Siedlitz, Poland [17]

I just found a newspaper article that reads:
POLISH PEACE DELEGATES REACH SIEDLITZ INSTEAD OF MINSK.
It is from August 14,1920.
Does this change anyone's mind or direction I should head?

Siedlitz

Thank you!

Any ideas on how to trace his birth? Would there be records there from about 1912?

Unfortunately I do not know the date my grandfather came to America. He was a little boy. He came with his mother several years after his father came here to get established.

If it wasn't until 1918 that Poland was an independent country it's possible that his town had the old German spelling if he were born prior to that correct?

I do know there are people from Gdansk who share my last name but have no idea if we are relations. I'm working on that.

The birth certificate is a US document it only states that name as the city her father was from. The document is 68 years old from Cleveland, Ohio.

At the end of the day, my motivation for locating this city is to trace my family. Once I find the city location and modern name I can start digging. Unfortunately everyone with that knowledge has passed.

This city is on my aunt's birth certificate. I'm told it's an old town that has a German name. Once Poland gained it's freedom it most likely changed to a Polish name.

Any ideas where this city is?
Thank you in advance!
