                   My grandfather is said to have been with the Police Force in T-L sometime around 1910's-1920's, but I don't have any proof of it apart from my mother's sketchy memory. Just recently while searching SwA for something else I found the following, sadly no scans.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.szukajwarchiwach.gov.pl/en/zespol?p_p_id=Zespol&amp;amp;p_p_lifecycle=1&amp;amp;p_p_state=normal&amp;amp;p_p_mode=view&amp;amp;_Zespol_javax.portlet.action=zmienWidok&amp;amp;_Zespol_nameofjsp=jednostki&amp;amp;_Zespol_id_zespolu=2628&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; class=&quot;postlink&quot;&gt;https://www.szukajwarchiwach.gov.pl/en/zespol?p_p_id=Zespol&amp;amp;p_p_lifecycle=1&amp;amp;p_p_state=normal&amp;amp;p_p_mode=view&amp;amp;_Zespol_javax.portlet.action=zmienWidok&amp;amp;_Zespol_nameofjsp=jednostki&amp;amp;_Zespol_id_zespolu=2628&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How would I go about finding the most appropriate records for my research?&lt;br /&gt;
It's only a long shot, but I'm desperate to find a photo of my grandfather since my two siblings have never seen what either of our two grandfathers look like. I at least saw an identity photo of my GF (Michał Soszyński) at my cousin's home in Poland over 40 years ago.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TIA&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers,&lt;br /&gt;
Henry Soszynski&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can ask the Lublin State Archives for a research, at the following email address:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:kanc@lublin.ap.gov.pl&quot;&gt;kanc@lublin.ap.gov.pl&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I guess You don't have contact with Your polish cousins who owned the picture?&lt;br /&gt;
Can You gige me Your grandparents names? Maybe their marriage record informs about his occupation.&lt;/td&gt;	&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;postbody&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for the suggestion. I may have to follow it up in the hope of getting a copy of the photo ID.&lt;br /&gt;
My grandfather's occupation on his marriage was simply worker, he was only 22 years old at that time. At his death his occupation was given as 'tkacz' not particularly suggestive of a career in the Police Force. &lt;br /&gt;
As for family there, I have lost contact with them, though I'm hopeful of making contact again somehow and somewhen.&lt;br /&gt;
Again thanks for the suggestion.&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers,&lt;br /&gt;
