Genealogy / Looking for information on the Rachfalski (?) Family- Krakow - late 1800s-early 1900 [3]

Hello:

I am doing research on family history and I am having a hard time finding information on my great grandmother's family. Here is what I know (or have been able to dig up)

- Name: Aneila Rachfalski (?)- I have seen various versions of this last name, and am unsure how to spell it.
- Parents- Jakub and Therese (I believe that Therese lived from 1851-1920ish and ancestry listed the death as being in Malopolskie, Poland)
- Immigrated to the US around 1905
-An arranged marriage was set up for her, but she choose to flee to US which angered her family.
-She married Anthony Gotz around 1917 in the USA.

I am seeking information because I have a family photo and I would like to pass it along to the family and also be able to identify those in the photo. I am also seeking to see if I can read any stories on the family as I am trying to work on an extensive family tree for my children. I have reviewed the information on Ancestery.com, but fall short in finding any information on my great great grandparents. I would also like to know the correct spelling of the last name.

Any help would be appreciated, I have been working on this for years and would like to progress .
