Zigmund Pawlowski, photograph
Zigmund ( Ziggy') Pawlowski during training in the coal industry at Woodhouse Colliery, Yorkshire.
"I chose mining when I came to Britain because all the other boys were doing it - when you are young you just take a chance. After training in Woodhouse Colliery, Yorkshire, I came to Wales - the other boys said 'Come to Wales - don't stop in England' and I hot a job in Windsor Colliery". Source: Glo. All Poles?
