A Gemeindelexikon (gazetteer) for Galicia can be found here:

http://wiki-de.genealogy.net/Gemeindelexikon_der_im_Reichsra...

Click on the cover image and then go to image 371 in the box above the small image where it says "Gehe zu Seite", which is the start of the Lisko administrative district.

Then you'll just have to plow your way through looking for villages that may correspond to the misspellings that you have. There are four sub-districts within Lisko and in each section the villages are arranged alphabetically.

By going to the HalGal web site you can find overall guidance on Ukrainian and Polish research in Galicia.
