[edit] Photo

The photo of "Maria Pilsudska" is not of Jozef's wife but of his mother (same name). You'll find a photo of the wife after p. 64 in the book, "Bitter Glory: Poland and Its Fate, 1918 to 1939," by Richard M. Watt, New York, Simon and Schuster, 1979.

Can anybody verify whose photo is Image:Maria Pilsudska.jpg?--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 18:52, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Judging by the dress it's his mother. The quality of the pic would also suggest that, it looks very 19th centurish. //Halibutt 21:40, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Here we go again

Maria Pilsudska was born in Vilnius in the English Wikipepedia, and born in Wilno in the Polish Wikipedia. Unfortunately Vilnius was occupied by a foreign power in 1865, it's name was Russia, not Poland (that came later), and let's try to have some consistency for consistency's sake.

Ok, I fixed that. //Halibutt 06:52, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
