Buryga

Hello,
I am currently researching my family name, Uryga, and am hitting a wall when trying to find information in Poland.
I know from some records I have that my great dziadzia and his family were from Limanowa, and he was born there around 1884. I am currently looking for information in his parents, Jozef Uryga and Victoria Marie (or Mary) Waligora. I know they had four children, my Great dziadzia Jan, Jozef, Catarzyna (Catherine) and another daughter.
Does anyone have any advice for me on where I can find additional information?
It also appears that many of my relatives were married in St. Michael Archangel church in Sechna?
I should clarify that at one time, Limanowa was part of the Austrian province of Galicia, as my great Dziadzia's Ellis Island information indicates.
