Dzien dobry:

My name is Joe Zelwietro (actually it's Z with a dot above it). I have
been exploring my heritage and my father's life before he settled in
Canada. I am using the Internet as a discovery tool because my father
is dead. It was especially sad, because he died before Poland had
regained her freedom in 1989, but I know he was not unique in that
respect. My father was a good man, but he was reluctant to speak of the
time between 1939 and 1942. He was one of the many who was taken
prisoner by the Soviets from Wilno area and ended up a decorated soldier
in the Polish 2nd Corps, but also a man without a country.

I want to go there and see where he is from and show my children where
their grandfather came from. While there are many things I want to know
I am joining this list with the hope that other members can help me with
two specific questions.

Is there anybody who has knows a Zelwietro, Zelwietr, Zelwetra, or
Zelwetro? (Remember that's Z with a dot)

Where is my father's village now?
He was born in Bortkiewiecze powiat Oszmina woj. Wilno
I know this area is in Lithuania now, but that's all I know.

If anybody can help I would be greatly indebted,

Dziekuje,
Joe Zelwietro
