ABOUT THE SIEMIĄTKOWSKI FAMILY PART I. CVETANA AND JÓZEF SIEMIĄTKOWSKI

Summary/Abstract: Helena from the Walewski family (1881–1956) and Antoni Siemiątkowski (1868–1952), coat of arms – Jastrzębiec, were the owners of the Wojsławice and Tymienice estates until the outbreak of the Second World War. They lived in a palace in Wojsławice, built in 1900–1902, from which they were expelled in September 1939. One of their sons, Józef Siemiątkowski (1904–1939), lived with wife Cvetana alias Tsena (1911–1983) and children Helena born in 1936 and Antoni (1983–2011) in a 19th century manor house in Tymienice. They were married in Sophia in 1934. At the outbreak of the war they moved to Warsaw because Józef was conscripted. Part I of the story of the Siemiątkowski family gives an account of the tragic history of this couple. On 24 September 1939, Józef Siemiątkowski was killed in a fight with Germans in Kazuń near Warsaw. His wife Cvetana went with children to Bulgaria. When they returned to Poland after the war, they had to face the harsh life of the post-war reality.
