Ks. Franciszek Kozonek - I think this is how
his name is spelled. My mother told me he is my Godfather, because
I nearly died
while in Ahlen hospital. I was baptized in a hurry at this hospital–apparently
I had a tube attached to me giving my blood to save a
German baby. My mother told me the story that she was very panic stricken
and started screaming so it was stopped. This she believes
saved my life. |

Olga:
I would like to post a picture of my grandfather (Josef ??) who was at the Reckenfeld camp sometime in 1945 along w/ my grandmother, Karolina Plesnar. Karolina was a cook at the camp. They are both of Polish decent. They were never married, but had a child named Kazimerz Joseph Plesnar, who is my father. He never knew his father as he was sent to a camp somewhere in Russia soon after my father was born. Kazimerz and Karolina came to the USA in 1951.
Here is the only photo I have of my grandfather. At this time his last name is unknown. I do believe it starts with an S. However, my (babjci) Karolina was reluctant to provide the information I need to research my ancestry. She has since passed.

Sep 30, 2015 Hello Ms. Kaczmar,
On behalf of a friend, I am trying to locate information about the Reckenfeld displaced persons camp. My friend believes that her father was administrator of the camp for a time, and she had a brother and sister who died there.
Can you help me find information about the camp? Specifically, do records still exist for it? Was there a cemetery for the camp? If so, is it still possible to find/visit the cemetery?
I look forward to hearing from you.
