I am new to these lists so I'll start with the info I have. My grandmother was born Pelahia Kapyna in Oct. 1892 Austria. We now beleive the area of her birth is near/in Galacia area -Ukraine. She used to talk about L'vov and some other cities she would visit. Our family isn't really sure which country to start with as her naturalization certificate(1940 United States)states place of birth as Poland. She came to the United States in 1908 through New York. Worked there for awhile-went down to Florida and ended up in California by 1940. She had an uncle somewhere in Canada at the time she came to the U.S. We have no info on her family other than her mother's first name was Anna. Her father married a 2nd time-don't know what happened to Anna. She had a Brother? named Paul. Paul may have been father or uncle. Big ????? here. She was Catholic. Is there Greek Orthodox in that area of Europe? I think that is what she told me. So--am I looking in the right place on the globe? Does this surname sound familiar to anyone? Any helpful suggestions? Any help in ANY area would be appreciated. Thanks Debbie
