Władysław Jędrzejewski

Władysław Jędrzejewski (11 February 1863–1940) was a General of the Polish Army, who was probably murdered by the NKVD in Lwów, in March 1940.

Jędrzejewski was born on 11 February 1863 in his family’s real estate Nowiny, located near Lepiel, Russian Empire (current Belarus).

In 1884, after graduation from a Cadet School in Polotsk, he joined the 93rd Irkutsk Infantry Regiment of the Imperial Russian Army.

In March 1919, Jędrzejewski was transferred to Lwów, where he commanded the defence of the city in the Polish-Ukrainian War.

During the 1939 Invasion of Poland, Jędrzejewski, at age 76, volunteered to the army, and formed the Citizens Guard in Lwów.
