Looking for other relatives

Looking for other relatives

My father Adam (nickname Danek) Iwanczuk was born in Lwow Poland 12 December 1923, his father's name Stefan, mother's Maria (maiden name was Wolanowska).
His parents were separated and mother was left to raise 5 children. Sometime in the 1940s my dad was taken away, to work as slave labourer in Germany. Quite a number of men were marched through the street of Lwow, on their way to the labour camps in Germany.

After the war we were moved from one Displaced Persons Camp to another. My father married my mother Janina Litawa from Stroze Poland.

I was born in Wildflecken Germany 24 Oct 1946.
We were finally accepted by the Australian Govt, and arrived by ship in Sydney, August 1949.
Later we settled in Newcastle NSW.

After the war, my father's family were relocated to Bytom & Zabrze in Poland.

My father passed away 2 years ago. Only his youngest brother is still alive.

What I would like to find out is if there are any other relatives on my grandfather's side.

I might have other cousins around the world.
That would be wonderful. Hope to hear from someone soon, as Iwanczuk is not a real common name.
