Larry,

Have you examined the LDS films of GC Records for Stare Siolo (Poland)?

Have you ever used LDS (Mormon Library) for research?

First locate the nearest Family Center below and then order the following films listed by number.
Cost is nominal and films become available to you for several weeks. If that's not enough time,
you can always extend the rental.

FamilySearch.org - Family History Centers

Does Ganczarz translate to Hanchar ?, something like çaÎÞÁÇ ?
You are correct, Polish letter grouping RZ is equivalent to letter ò in Ukranian and Gangarz is çÁÎÞÁÒ.
Additionally, Skiba is an old interesting surname. It could mean one of two things: MAN, w/MARRIED DAUGHTER,
WHO LIVES ALONE or FERTILE LAYER OF PLOWED SOIL.

Eva Ganczarz
Probably called Yevka by family members. Nickname for Eudokia.

Quote:
possible daughter of Demetrio Woroniak. His Mother is shown as Catherine Czay, daughter of Josephi Czay and mother Maryae. Witness is shown as Theodorus
Demetrius is polanized version of Dmytro. Catherine Czay = Katerzyna Czay (surname means TEA). Maryae = Marya. Theodorius is polanized version of Teodore (frequent nickname is Fedor or Fedko).
