Genealogy / Family members immigrating from Bereska [26]

I actually could not find and record in Ellis Island where the Barron family immigrated. His name was Dmitro Barron born around 1846. His wife's name was Catherine Hrickowian b1858. They were married in Bereska. Prior to comming to the US, They had 5 children. In order Julia, George, Catherine, Joseph, and Mary. 6 more were born in the US, Eva, Anna, Anastasia, Rosella John and Peter. They immigrated to Derry Pennsylvania. Eva is my grandmother.

Genealogy / Family members immigrating from Bereska [26]

Hi Polonius:
Good info. My grandfather's name was Tymko Madejczyk. That's the way it is spelled in the Ellis Island record. He immigrated to the US in 1903 from Bereska. His Uncle, Michal Duda, also came to the United states in 1910 from the town of Bereska. In his record it indicates he was visiting his nephew Tymko Madej.

Is there anywhere I can research these names in Poland (Bereska). I have used Familysearch.org and EllisIsland.org. Familysearch has the church records around Krakow, Poland but does not seem to cover the area near Bereska. Any help would be great.

Thanks, Mike

Merged: Family members immigrating from Bereska

OK:
I have read most of the posts. I have hit a brick wall. I have a number of family members that have immigrated to the US (mid to late1800s) from the town of Bereska. This Bereska is the one near Lesko. I know this because my Grandfather's immigration record indicates Beresko/lesko. Family names are Madejczyk, Barron, and Duda. Where do I go to find more information about these families? I have done extensive searches of Ellis Island records. It seems there is nothing on line that I am able to search that is within Poland/Austria. HELP...

Thanks, Mike
