I don't have a lot of info on them but the i have 1 name. It is Tadeusz Frontczak. I am assuming he was born in poland and came over as a youngster as no birth record found. He was born 1925 and married in sheffield uk in 1956. He married Geraldine Ogden. He died 1990 in Sheffield. That is all I know about the family. It is a new line I am following. Thanks Lynette

Lynette,

I have just had another thought - was he nationalised?
   
Without having anything to go on, it will be quite difficult - just like the people looking for their German ancestors.

I don't know. Would he have had to have been nationalised to get married over here? Lynette

That is something that I do not know.  I wouldn't think so.

Perhaps someone else knows an anwer to that.

I am not sure, would it be of any help to get the marriage cert?

I know that I am not much help, but haven't been down this road before  :)

Might be worth looking at other posts to see how they have gone about searching for their ancestors.  Although, thinking about it, most are searching for people who came over to England sometime earlier than your Tadeusz!

It could be worth getting it. I will ring them today and see if they have it on record still. Thank you. Lynette

Hi!
I just found your post and am the great-granddaughter of Tadeusz Frontczak's sister Helena. I am interested in genealogy and my grandparents told me a lot about him. He is known in the family as "uncle from England". We know a lot about him and my grandmother would also be very happy to reconnect since she knew his kids, when they were kids.
