Anyone researching DYDA? UJEST (Galicia/Austria)?? Help Needed!
Records for my GGrandfather Aleksa DYDA show that he and his wife Katarzina (LAZOWSKI) were Polish from Ujest (Ujazd), Austria-Hungary, Galicia, (Poland). Records for his sister, Maria (Dyda) Hrycyszyn and her husband Wasyl HRYCYSZYN, show that they were Ruthenian, from Rohatyn, Austria. In modern day, these areas now referred to as: lower Poland- areas near or around: Gliwice, Breslau, Wroclaw, Brzezia (latitude 18, longitude 50), or the Ukraine, previous Galicia- Rohatyn (latitude 24 longitude 49). Any help researching any of these surnames would be greatly appreciated! It would be nice to even find another DYDA researcher!!

Hello - my great-grandmother was Katarzyna H. Dyda (aka Kathrine or Katie) b1875. Katarzyna H. Dyda (aka Kathrine or Katie) married my great-grandfather, Joseph Anthony Guzzy. One of their children was my grandmother, Mary Elizabeth Guzzy.
If you email me at mkgarcia206@yahoo.com, I can send you the information that I have. Dyda ancestry may be available from the following church records, St. Andrew in Ludzmierz, Poland near Nowy Targ which was previously known as the Galicia area. Couples had a lot of children at that time. Who knows, maybe we're related.
