Famous Relatives

My father, Stanley Dunin, was a war orphan. Both of his parents were killed in Poland in September 1939 during the German blitzkrieg. Other family was arrested and sent to Auschwitz. My father and his sisters (all under the age of 6) were able to survive only through the frantic assistance of friends and relatives throughout Europe and North America. The children finally made their way to the United States, and grew up to have families of their own. But because of the chaos of the war, much of our family history was lost. One of my projects has been to try and piece together the bits and pieces of my family genealogy and heritage. Misplaced Pages has been a good source for this, as I have been learning about some of my more famous relatives, especially from the Polish szlachta (noble/gentility) classes. This section provides links to those relatives who are notable enough to have their own articles.


  • Great-great-grandniece (via my paternal grandmother's paternal grandmother) of Saint Raphael Kalinowski
  • Great-granddaughter of Edward Werner, Polish Vice-Finance Minister
  • Great-great-grandniece (via my paternal grandmother's maternal grandfather) of the famous German botanist Eduard Strasburger
  • First Cousin (by marriage) once-removed of Pulitzer-prize-winner Jared Diamond.
  • Rodryg Dunin - My great-grandfather. He had the title of "Hrabi" (Count), and was listed as a "Notable Pole" in a book somewhere (I'll dig up the link later)
  • Edmund Taczanowski - Great-great-grandmother's brother-in-law. My great-great-grandmother: Maria-Antonina Baranowska. Her sister: Aniela Baranowska. Her husband: Edmund. I'm actually related to him my blood, as well, as he's the grandson of my great-great-great grandfather Maksymilian Taczanowksi, which makes him the first cousin of my great-grandmother Lucia Taczanowska Dunin, or you could say he's my first cousin thrice removed, take your pick.  ;)
