      Graves in Poland

      Here are 3x Grave inscriptions I am not able to decipher, if anyone can clarify any of these names it'd be a big help.

      I think they could be in Jaslo, Poland but open to correction on that.



      Grave A )





      Grave B)





      Grave C)



      I have tried using different cameras/lenses/different days lighting conditions and this is as clear as I can get them unfortunately.

      Thanks for checking !

        Grave A )
        Looks like Siegfried Hofer or Hafer
        Possibly:
        Nachname:Hofer
        Vorname:Siegfried
        Dienstgrad:Unteroffizier
        Geburtsdatum:07.06.1915
        Geburtsort:Kirchbichl
        Todes-/Vermisstendatum:07.09.1939
        Todes-/Vermisstenort: Korczyna

        Grave B)

        Joseph Kellner
        No direct hit for a Joseph, but according to the volksbund site, there are 7 Kellners listed who died in '39. IF that's the year we're looking for....

        Grave C)
        No idea on that one....
        that's what they look like to me....

        best

          Perfect thanks !! I had tried a few different combinations of 'Bofer', 'Hafer' etc into Volkesbund but no joy. It is this guy because Korczyna is 30 k from the rest of the album. Thanks for that - great help.

          Nachname:Hofer
          Vorname:Siegfried
          Dienstgrad:Unteroffizier
          Geburtsdatum:07.06.1915
          Geburtsort:Kirchbichl
          Todes-/Vermisstendatum:07.09.1939
          Todes-/Vermisstenort: Korczyna

            If you go to the Volksbund website and search for the other guy by last name and year killed (1939) you'll find the 7 names. If you can pin down their locations anywhere within a couple km of your guy, you might reasonably figure out who "Kellner" is.

              Thanks for that, I went through the other 7 last night from the home PC, I made a note of the names (Vokesbund let's you extract pdf copies of name info). I think the most likely was Leopold Kellner killed within a day of Siegfried Hofer and re-buried in the same cemetery. Cheers !

                      I need some help with the writing on the back of this photo.

                      I cannot read the name on top.
                      Below that i read: "Feldwebel ???, Willi??, ???, Ich".
                      Below that: "Am Verplegungsraum".
                      Below that: "Russland, 8-8-1942".

                      EDIT: i just added a second photo, with the same unknown name.
                      Looks like Nepaschotau ?

                      I'm collecting anything related to the towns Castricum and Bakkum during WWII.
                      Also soldbucher from 116pzdiv. And 1944-1945 eastfront pockets, kampfgruppe and Oder front.
