Dennis,

Your surname is based on type of food. Галушка means DUMPLING.

polakdave,

Was the surname Самочук or Самосюк???

I could not find any transliteration variant Samochuk/Samoczuk*** (would be Самочук in Ukr), however I did find 177 Samociuk/Samosiuk (Самосюк) living in Ukraine today.

***CH/CZ pronounced like in CH in Church.
