Abstract

The article presents the fi gure of Julia Kratowska, born in Puławy into a family with patriotic traditions. Julia Kratowska was an independence, educational, social, and political activist throughout the interwar period and shortly after the war she had a connection to Ciechanów. The article introduces to her genealogy, allows one to learn about her hitherto unknown roots. On the other hand, the rich archival material about her person, contained in the archives of the Mazovian Nobility Museum in Ciechanów, allows to present her entire career as a teacher of Polish, French, and German, starting from Lublin, then Zakopane and fi nally the city on the Łydynia River. We also recognize her as a devoted social activist of the Women’s Civic Labor Union, which she chaired in Ciechanów, and in the years 1935-1936 she headed the Main Board. She brought the greatest pride to the town as a senator of the Republic of Poland in 1935–1938.
