Did he come to England alone or with his family?
Was he perhaps in the Polish Army over here in which case it may be possible to apply for his army record which might mention other family.

Maybe he became a naturalised Briton?

This NA guide may be of help

http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/records/looking-for-person/naturalised-britons.htm

Some of the records available are name searchable through the link.

However if he came over at a young age with his parents, or a parent, then he may only appear in a record for them.

Reggie's suggestion of getting his marriage certificate would probably be the best way forward.
