Stanisław Grzesiuk was born May 6, 1918 in Malkow near Chelm. Early in his life his family moved to Warsaw's borough of Czerniakow, a distinct cultural area populated mostly by factory workers and other lower classes of the society. After graduating from a local gymnasium he finished a trade school and started working as an electrotechnician for various enterprises.
