Biography:

Anna Hanna Maria Antonina Rokossowska (1917-1986), born in Będzin, daughter of Kazimierz Rokossowski and Helena Zofia Kokczyńska. Her parents' marriage certificate was registered at St. Aleksander Parish in Warsaw (marriage register, no. 164 of 1909).

During the Second World War she was active in the sanitary section of the Women's Military Service in the area of Zduńska Wola and the Zapolice municipality. By that time she was probably already married to Bolesław Kolasiński, pseudonym "Lesław", commander of a Home Army unit in the village of Piaski.

On 13 March 1984, she entered into a second marriage with André Paul Eugène de Cayeux de Sénarpont.

Additional information:

Anne's husband, André Paul Eugène de Cayeux de Sénarpont, was born on 24 December 1907 in Paris and died on 27 December 1986 in Saint-Nazaire (Loire-Atlantique). He was the son of René de Cayeux de Sénarpont (born 1870) and Aline Philippe (born 1880). André de Cayeux was an eminent geographer, geologist and planetologist. He served as professor of geology at the Faculty of Sciences of Paris (1958-1969) and as scientific director of Laval University in Canada (1968-1974). He is known for his development of sand morphoscopy and as one of the fathers of the French school of planetology. He collaborated with scientists such as Jean Tricart and Audouin Dollfus. He received an honorary doctorate from the University of Lodz. From his first marriage to Anne Marie Antoinette de Lavenne de La Montoise (born 3 July 1908 in Cherbourg, died 26 May 1982 in Saint-Maur-Des-Fossés), he had 12 children. Their wedding took place on 4 August 1931 in Saint-Aignan-Grandlieu (Loire-Atlantique) (https://gw.geneanet.org).

Anna Rokossowska and André de Cayeux are buried in the Montmartre cemetery in Paris.

Her father, Kazimierz Rokossowski, was born on 2 March 1876 to Piotr Rokossowski and Julia Cholewińska. He was a notary in Zduńska Wola and a member of the Sejm of the Second Polish Republic in the 1922-1927 term, representing the Christian Association of National Unity in the National-Christian Labour Party club. He worked as a notary in Zduńska Wola until 1933 ( http://lepczynski.eu/strona/slawni-zdunskowolanie/kazimierz-rokossowski ).
