Ceremony in Osada Krechowiecka, Wolyn 1930
Ceremony in Osada Krechowiecka, Wolyn 1930. Originally identified as the inauguration of the community centre. However, Piotr Tabor has commented that this is another existing building and that the ceremony may be the collection of soil for the Memorial Mound of Piłsudski. He adds that the soldier digging in the foreground is probably his great-grandfather Wincenty Tabor, with his children (Piotr's grandfather Jan and Jan's sister Jadwiga) holding a sack to collect it. Wincenty Tabor was a Krechowiecka military settler, but did not live in Krechowice but in osada Rusywel.
