Kadłub, Łódź Voivodeship

[2] The parish covered Kadłub along with two nearby villages Popowice and Grębień.

[2] Kadłub was a private church village of the Archdiocese of Gniezno until 1555, and of the Gniezno Archcathedral Chapter afterwards,[2] administratively located in the Sieradz Voivodeship in the Greater Poland Province.

[2] During the German occupation of Poland (World War II), in 1940, the German gendarmerie carried out expulsions of Poles, who were placed in a transit camp in Łódź, and then young Poles were deported to forced labour in Germany and German-occupied France, and others were deported to the General Government in the more eastern part of German-occupied Poland.

[3] Houses and farms of expelled Poles were handed over to German colonists as part of the Lebensraum policy.

[4] The village was renamed to Rumfeck in attempt to erase traces of Polish origin.
