Prime Minister Morawiecki is married to Iwona Bednarek, with whom he has four children.
Prime Minister Morawiecki’s patrilineal ancestry can be traced back to his sixth great-grandfather, Tomasz Morawicki.
Prime Minister Morawiecki’s paternal grandfather was Michał Andrzej Morawiecki (the son of Michał Morawiecki and Helena Szymańska). Prime Minister Morawiecki’s grandfather Michał was born in Nawarzyce, Jędrzejów County, Swietokrzyskie. Prime Minister Morawiecki’s great-grandfather Michał was the son of Ignacy Morawiecki and Paulina Tytko. Helena was the daughter of Władysław Szymański and Marianna Kozłowska.
Prime Minister Morawiecki’s paternal grandmother was Jadwiga Szumańska (the daughter of Władysław Klaudiusz Szumański and Józefa Zofia Kałużna). Jadwiga was born in Warszawa, Warszawa, Mazowieckie. Władysław was the son of Karol Szumański and Anna Ołga Leykam, who was of German descent. Józefa was the daughter of Walenty Kałużny and Maryanna Antonina Centaus.
Prime Minister Morawiecki’s maternal grandfather was Henry Joseph Ruzicka (or Henryk Józef Różyczka in Polish, the son of Petr “Peter” Ružička and Antónia “Annie” Kuřátková). Joseph was born in St. Louis, Missouri, United States, to Czech emigrants. Petr was the son of Petr “Peter” Ružička. Antónia was the daughter of Václav “James” Kuřátko.
Prime Minister Morawiecki’s maternal grandmother was Rozalia Pilarska (the daughter of Wincenty Pilarski and Józefa Nowak). Wincenty was the son of Wawrzyniec Pilarski and Marianna Zając. Józefa was the daughter of Walenty Nowak and Marianna Belka.
Prime Minister Morawiecki is sometimes said on the internet to have Jewish ancestry. This is not accurate. It is perhaps a reference to relatives by marriage.

Ethnic, is there a picture, please?
no sorry
He stepped in on 11 December.
His wiki claims he is Jewish.
“Always at such ceremonies I begin reflecting on my family’s own story, Morawiecki said. My aunt Irena was a Jew, she survived the war and as a child of 10. Until she was 16, she stayed with a Polish family who rescued her with help from a few dozen other non-Jewish Poles who risked their lives to hide her.”

So why does the profile not have Jewish listed?
If his aunt was Jewish, wouldn’t his father or mother be Jewish?
Or is he talking about an aunt by marriage?
Because the genealogy seems to only list non-Jewish ancestors. I have no idea where his alleged Jewish ancestry could come from.
Well, it doesn’t look like his paternal side is Jewish. Perhaps Rozalia Pilarska was Jewish. Changed her name like Roman Polanski.
Or his aunt Irena is his aunt by marriage.
I hope he wouldn’t lie about something as serious as that.
