Biography:

Władysław Dembski, Polish priest. In 1880, he arrived at the Polish parish in Brudenell, Canada, where he began the construction of a new church dedicated to St Stanislaus Kostka on Church Street, about 2.5 kilometres south-east of the centre of Vilnius. As tradition has it, the Kashubian settlement was named Wilno in honour of the then parish priest, a native of Vilnius.
