Thank you for your response. Just some quick notes.

- My Grandparents were from Stare Siolo, Austrian Empire, circa 1897, now in present day Poland, not from Stare Selo, southeast of L’viv, where the castle is.
- Does Ganczarz translate to Hanchar ?, something like çaÎÞÁÇ ?, or am I way off. My Ukrainian is not very good, but I’m learning.
