Since I am trying to help you to get you in the "right" country of your ancestors, I found it. English Y is a J sound so Mydon would be close to MAJDAN pronounciation. Your Piotr MAJDAN was not from Lublin but from Lubzessin, Russia/Poland. In Poland only one way to spell your surname MAJDAN. The village Lubzessin (sp?) might be in Lublin county/region/.
