comments
Fate unclear.
In the available sources (e.g. Wikipedia) the figure of Fr Vincent Mikołajtis, b.
06.01.1893 in Pilotiškės, ordained in 1915, next student in Sankt Petersburg, who, however, survived and died in 1967.
On the other hand in the Archdiocese of Warsaw, the priest was Fr Vladislav Mikołajtis, b.
10.12.1881, ordained in 1905, who in c. 1915, during the First World War, found himself „outside the archdiocese” and his further fate is unknown.
