Steve Roy
Hi
I am the web master of aforgottenodyssey.com Through the meeting of my father John Roy-Wojciechowski and Stefan Wisniowski I decided to help by creating the web site with Stefan. Stefan (and others) provide me with the information needed and I just turn it into HTML. What I would like to propose to the group is the forming of a database that is connected to the web site. I would be willing to create the database and interface it to the web site. However being a technical person I would need ideas on what fields would be required in the database and how to search for information. A field would for example be a surname, city, date etc So my question really is, as the end user what information would you want to find in the database and what fields would you want to search on? Thanks Steve Roy-Wojciechowski |

Hello Steve and many thanks for your offer. Off the top of my head (and it isn't feeling too bright this afternoon - must be all that excersing, at the gym, that I have just started) I suggest:
Surname Area (being town, village, etc.) where the person came from Date deported (perhaps month would be better here) Camp assigned to If I think of anything else I will contact you.

Hi Steve,
Thank you for your generous offer and thanks to Barbara for her suggestion. Would it be at all possible to be able to, say, type in a town name and then have information about that town - some ideas would be history, number of people deported, where they were deported to, etc, as well as photo links)? Also, a database with all the names of the camps with corresponding info could be a useful link, as would the different associations throughout the world related to our cause/subject. Not being a technical wizard it always amazes me how this sort of thing appears on our screens and I will be truly in awe of anything that is created. Don't know if it's at all feasible given my location, but I am happy to edit/proofread any info before it goes to that great satellite in the sky. Again, not being a Polish speaker/reader I am at a disadvantage where it comes to collating information but if I can at all help, this is where my expertise lies. Grace |

This kind of a database would depend on the size of webspace you've got a good search script in Pearl or CGI would take a whole lot of room Paul At 02:48 11/25/2001 +0000, you wrote: Hi Steve,

Ooops, forgot to put in the wojewodstwo, that would really help.? Those things wouldn't have to be mandatory, except for the surname of course, but they would certainly be helpful to others who are researhing the name.
