Lodz Poland Records
« on: Thursday 20 November 14 15:14 GMT (UK) »
Trying to check out parentage details of Henryk Piotrowski born Lodz Poland 5 May 1922. Married Alice Butcher Ipswich Suffolk in 1950.
Parents mentioned as Stefania Redko and Boleslaw Piotrowski both born circa 1900. Any idea how to trace online? Cant find anything on Ancestry or LDS?

Cyndi Howells' website may give you a link: I'll be interested to see how things go for you as I have a small amount of research to do in Poland myself, but am currently waiting for some info from Canada before I can begin....

Thanks Graham
Have searched this morning using this site - but alas with no success as records not very extensive. 
Any further thoughts from anyone gratefully received.

Hi

There's a Stefania REDKO baptised 1899 in Łęczyca (NNW of Lodz), to Władysław Redko and Waleria Woźnicka - entry 196 down the page; entry 195 looks to be her brother:

Here's the main page for Geneteka:

Was Henryk naturalised?  There are some possibles at The National Archives:

Thanks for the advice and suggestions.

The Piorowski's on the National Archives are not my Henryk as far as I can make out. He was living in Ipswich in 1950 having married an Alice Butcher.

Yes - fantastic - you have helped to locate the maternal grandparents - Redko's which is great as it now gives me something to go on.

I am still trying to find Henryk Piotrowski - so any further input would be very much appreciated.

With many thanks
