        Tom - In case you haven't run across this - I found the attached at Family Search by typing is Iwan Rapacz with the date 1864. It is the record of Grandpa's father's first trip to the U.S.
        As you can see, he is on Line 11. One interesting thing is that his contact in Sharon, Pa. was Wasyl Smolij. One of grandpa's friends for many years was a John Smolij.
        Line 10 is a Lyseiko, also from Michniowiec. Lysejko was the maiden name of Iwan's wife ( our great grandmother) Kateryna Lysejko.
        On line 23 is another Lysejko, also going to Sharon, Pa. to Wasyl Smolij.
        Line 17 is another Rapacz. Related?

        Iwan returned home to Europe ( early 1904?) and then came back to the US in Nov. 1904
