Hi ,
It would help to have the name and the religious affiliation of your grandfather and was he resettled in 1940 ?

Hello Diethard,
Thankyou for replying to me. I have since found out that township is now in Ukraine. My grandfather Waclaw, was born in either 1889/90. And came to Australia in 1950, They were Roman Catholic. I can only find his father (my great grandfather) Ludwik Kosowski died in 1910. Im guessing all information has since been destroyed. My grandfather Waclaw & grandma Anna Suchanowska came to Australia with their two sons, Albin & Tadeusz. We dont know about any other relatives, living or deceased. I will keep looking at Church records but not holding too much hope.
Thankyou & kind regards,
Richard K

Richard,
Have you checked the Arolsen Archives for information? Many refugees and DPs emigrated from Europe under the IRO (International Refugee Organisation) There are a number of Waclaw Kosowski/Kossowski names with different birth dates. Worth a look. https://arolsen-archives.org/en/search-explore/search-online-archive/ Not all were concentration camp survivors.
