We believe he is of Polish ancestry coming from a family of possibly 10 to 11 siblings. His occupation states that he was an analytical chemist. He married Hildegard Buetzmuehlen (PARENTS ARE WALTER BUETZMUEHLEN AND GERTRUD MAIDEN NAME ULLMANN) in 1946 and had two children in SOLINGEN JANINA AND OLAF. They were in a displaced camp and came to Australia in 1951 were they lived at Greta Camp. They had two more children Edward and Bud. He deserted the family shortly afterwards never to be seen again by his family. I found that he died in Perth Western Australia in 1981.I am now at a standstill with my research and would appreciate any information. The spelling of Ratajczek could possibly be Ratajczak. Again any information on my grandfather would be greatly appreciated. Regards Martine 2011-10-19 12:52:45Z mhold157 http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.ratajczek/1/mb.ashx
