Fr Augustyn Szarnowski (1892–1963), born in Naterki near Olsztyn, canon regular, was one of the most outstanding priests in Warmia. He published several articles in the diocesan paper, Ermlädisches Kirchenblatt. He worked in different parishes near Olsztyn before and after 1945. He treated all his parishioners with equal care, both native Warmians and those who settled there after the Second Word War. During his time as a director of the diocesan Caritas he endured a lot of humiliation at the hands of two totalitarian regimes, Nazism and Communism. He was imprisoned by the Nazis for 18 months in 1941–1942. He hold several important posts in the diocese. He was a diocesan consultor since 20.10.1948, a cathedral canon since 01.08.1951, and a parish priest of St James’s co-cathedral from 1954 to 1956.

In his autobiography, initially printed in Gazeta Olsztyńska in early March 1925, Father Walenty Barczewski (1856–1928) wrote that he had actively contributed to the birth of three Polish newspapers in the region of Warmia, including Gazeta Olsztyńska. Historians were reluctant to give credence to his words. The autobiography claims that „a certain father B.[arczewski] edited and wrote articles for three Polish newspapers in Warmia: Gazeta Olsztyńska, founded in 1886, Nowiny Warmińskie, started in 1890, and Warmiak, founded in 1893. He thus contributed significantly to the preservation of the Polish language and the Polish spirit in Warmia and Mazury”. Jan Chłosta’s article discusses Father Walenty Barczewski’s collaboration with Gazeta Olsztyńska.
