I had a pleasure to know Henryk Szczesny for several years. He was a best friend of my uncle who was also a pilot during WWII. My uncle was in Div.302.
Stefan Kleczkowski (my uncle) had a hotel in Sittingbourne, where Henryk (Hesio) was working for a while and he and myself were running the hotel when my uncle was on holidays in south of France and Poland. As for family, Hesio was married three times, first wife (polish) lived in States, second one returned to Ireland after a divorce and the third one Polish one again stayed with him in Ealing London until his death. I am sure he had some relatives in Poland. He and my uncle went to Poland many times visiting each other families.
Unfortunately I did not pay too much attention and never remembered who was still left there. My aunt is still alive and visits me periodically (due one week before Christmas) may be she will be able to remember more facts.

I hope that helps with you question.
