Welcome to the Leki Gorne google satellite map! This place is situated in Debica, Podkarpackie, Poland, its geographical coordinates are 49° 59′ 0″ North, 21° 11′ 0″ I found the passenger list for our Stanislaus Sas that shows in 1883 his residence was Leki Gorne Poland. What area is this. Is this in Galicia. Help. This is the first clue of where he came from. His census in US shows Austria/Poland.

I am doing a research on my grandmother and her family. Some documents indicate that she was from Romanowka,Galicia….also spelled Roanowe Sioto. It appears that my grandmother considered herself “Austrian”. she was born in 1887 and left for the USA in 1907. Where was this region (city?) in 1887 and where is it today? any help would be greatly appreciated. Betty Dobies 248-373-0707…..bettydobies@wowway.com

In response to Brian Schult’s posting on 12/30/11 – Have you examined church records from Baworow through LDS for answers? My grandfather emigrated from Baworow in 1910. I have found many records for him, his siblings, parents, and grandparents, and others with his surname. They are not indexed by name so they do take some time to go through. Have you tried the spelling Szucs?

Response to Pam Moore,s Posting on July 17, 2010 at 1:20 pm. Thank you for sharing your info on Baworow. My Grand parents are also from the same location, and I now have another avenue of information to search. Thanks
