E- mail me at > DOchoa7228 @AOL.com Thanks for reading this. I am just getting into this myself and maybe I could get you some minor leads. First, do not always assume that your ancestors kept the came spelling when they came over. The name Dziadik caught my eye because my mother's maiden is Zadik and was also spelled Dzadik in the old country. Second, maybe these addresses may help-http://www.m2c.com/links/genealo.htm and http://www.carpatho-rusyn.org and http://www.muselik.com/. Third, see if there is a Mormon Research library close to you. There you can do research on your family and anyone of any faith can use the library. I hope this will help.
