Inherited surnames were virtually non-existent among European Jews at the beginning of the 19th century. Depending on where your family came from, adoption of surnames occurred officially in Austria in the late 1700s, Poland in 1821 and Russia in 1844.

Your true heritage is Azkenazi Jewish.

Transliterated surname Lys (Лис in Ukrainian), means FOX. It is a very common Christian surname in Ukraine.

Lis in Polish (transliterates to Ліс in Ukrainian) also means FOX.

I found two Liss (Лисс) listed in Kyiv. Checked other large cities in Ukraine and found none. Also found several Liss in Minsk/ Pinsk/ Grodno/Brest > Belarus.

Immigration records indicate that Liss/Lis emigrated from Galicia, Minsk, Grodno> Belarus today, Dubno> Vohlyn and Bialostock and Posen > Poland (formerly Russian Empire). Check out following link and do search among HISTORICAL RECORDS. Make sure CANADIAN ONLY is not clicked.

Hm, I not sure that you can locate someone with knowing nothing but his last name (except if it's a very rare last name)...You must first try to find out his first name. That is a cardinal step in your process of finding him. Then you can check at some social network site or through an online people search engine (it's a time saving method). My personal favourite is:
waatp.com
I used their service to get in contact with a friend of mine that moved to usa. It's a very usefull website with a large database...
But first you need to concentrate on finding that's person first name. Do a little research for a people living in Ukraina with that last name...
