&lt;br /&gt;
 She left behind her family , 4 or 5 brothers I think and a sister as well as her parents.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have all this family I have never known and I would very much like to see if I could find some of them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My mother did not talk much about her family or home , I think she wanted to put the war behind her.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
I don't have much information ,but any help would be very much appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I could situate two villages and find corresponding parish. Also digged general information for the name Mietkiekicz.&lt;br /&gt;
By rule, you cannot have an open access to anything less than 100 years old, circa 1912 today.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, your name:&lt;br /&gt;
1. Mietkiewicz&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.moikrewni.pl/mapa/kompletny/mietkiewicz.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.moikrewni.pl/mapa/kompletny/mietkiewicz.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
12 answers in today population.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Miętkiewicz&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.moikrewni.pl/mapa/kompletny/mi%25C4%2599tkiewicz.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.moikrewni.pl/mapa/kompletny/mi%25C4%2599tkiewicz.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1185 answers&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think the original writing, Polish one, was with diacritic &amp;quot;e ogonek&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Second, geography:&lt;br /&gt;
It is extremely precious you know both villages, because otherwise we would have several ambiguities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Your villages are:&lt;br /&gt;
Suszewo, Lipno County, Poland&lt;br /&gt;
and&lt;br /&gt;
Wilczewo, Golub-Dobrzyń County, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, Poland&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is East of Torun.&lt;br /&gt;
But Wilczewo is not within parish of Torun, neither within Golub-Dobrzyń&lt;br /&gt;
Its parish is Dulsk, and luckilly, it is an old one, see below.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Third, I checked Dulsk in National Archives:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;http://szukajwarchiwach.pl/search?q=Dulsk&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://szukajwarchiwach.pl/search?q=Dulsk&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Got 15 answers, many years, but not all.&lt;br /&gt;
Collection: 514/37/0 Akta metrykalne parafii rzymskokatolickiej w Dulsku &lt;br /&gt;
No one is with scans. That could serve to confirm your genealogy beyond 1912, older than one hundred years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My advice would be to write - email - to the parish Dulsk, give your explanations, ask you are looking for your Mother birth records, her filiation, and her sibillings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To be clear: you are the only one who can get information about records less than one hundred years, you have to demonstrate your family relations. No middlemen. We can help to put your request in Polish, in case you wish post it in English and in Polish to the parish.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bonne chance!&lt;br /&gt;
Elzbieta&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Parafia Dulsk&lt;br /&gt;
Najświętszej Marii Panny w Dulsku.&lt;br /&gt;
Adres parafii:&lt;br /&gt;
Dulsk 57&lt;br /&gt;
87-404 Radomin&lt;br /&gt;
dekanat dobrzyński n.Drwęcą&lt;br /&gt;
woj. kujawsko-pomorskie&lt;br /&gt;
tel. 56 682 76 00&lt;br /&gt;
e-mail:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:parafia@parafiadulsk.pl&quot;&gt;parafia@parafiadulsk.pl&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.parafiadulsk.pl/?page_id=2&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.parafiadulsk.pl/?page_id=2&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Parafia obejmuje następujące miejscowości: Dulsk, Dulskie Rumunki, &lt;br /&gt;
Frankowo, Kamionka, Pólka, Sokołowo, Sokołowskie Rumunki, Spiczyny, Wilczewko, Wilczewo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rys historyczny&lt;br /&gt;
Parafia pod wezwaniem Wniebowzięcia Najświętszej Marii Panny została erygowana &lt;br /&gt;
prawdopodobnie pod koniec XIV w., choć pierwsza wzmianka o kościele pochodzi z 1431 r. &lt;br /&gt;
...&lt;br /&gt;
W czasie okupacji, po aresztowaniu ks. Stanisława Nowaka, kościół był nieczynny.</description>
