Adolf Jabłoński was born in Krasocin and died in Bóbrka as director of oil mine. He fought in the January Uprising. In 1870, his passion for pharmaceutics led him to contact representatives of the company administering the oil mine in Bóbrka: Łukasiewicz, Trzecieski, and Klobassa. He was sent to the United States to raise his qualifications. When he came back to Poland in 1874 the experience he obtained allowed him to build original machines, e.g. Jabłoński’s bell used to seal off water. Jabłoński’s technological persistence led to the publication of the first Polish oil industry manual entitled Oil Mining, in which he described the procedures and devices used in the drilling process.
