source: portal: To live in interesting times – Lviv before and during the war — web page: httpwwwzycwciekawychczasach.blogspot.com [accessible: 2010.03.01]

My great–grandfather, Kazimierz Strzetelski, was a forester from the times before the First World War. First in Kwaszenin near Dobromil, and then he was moved to Kadobna, near Kałusz  […] Four of my grandfather's brothers died at the hands of Ukrainian nationalists. The eldest son Juliusz, born in 1901, graduated from the VIII Gymnasium. King Kazimierz in Lviv  […] During the war with the Bolsheviks, he served in the communications department, and after the end of hostilities, on behalf of the Polish authorities, he became the census commissioner in the district of Kaluski, of the „National Census of Population and Livestock”, started in September 1921  […] This is how, in October 1921, in the village of Wierzchnia in the Kałuski county, the eldest s/o Kazimierz, Juliusz Strzetelski, was murdered by Ukrainian nationalists  […]Erazm (Ercio) – this is another s/o Kazimierz. This is what Ms Ewa Fulińska Nadachowska mentions in her stories. Erasmus, born in 1911, graduated from the XI Gymnasium in Lviv in 1931 and started studies at the Forest Faculty of the Lviv Polytechnic. Like his father, Kazimierz wanted to be a forester. After graduating, he became a forester engineer and shortly before the outbreak of World War II he took over the forest inspectorate in the vicinity of Dolina, where he was murdered by the Banderites in 1944”.
