Hi everyone, Still trying to find my fathers history and family in Poland. His name, Setnik. He came from Chorzow.I have searched the sites advised but still finding it difficult. Wondered whether the army records might help as well. If anyone has anymore advice, it would be so welcome. Thank You Odette

The root of Setnik is sto (one hundred) and setnik is the Polish translation of the Roman centurion. It means someone in command or chagre of 100 people.
