Looking to determine the ethnic origin of the name Cyca. My grandfather was born in 1901,at Freifeld, Galicia, Austria (present day location is east Poland, close to the Ukrainian border). Freifeld was a German colony, settled in 1783, by German Roman Catholics from Bohemia. Freifeld was 2 kms. NE of Zukow + 6 kms. NNE of Cieszanow, where the German Roman Catholics attended church. My grandfather was born to a German Roman Catholic mother named Maria Polz + Basil Cyca, origin unknown ( he definitely wasn't German. The family of six children, left this area in 1903 and settled in Saskatchewan, at Lemberg, among German, Poles, + Ukrainian settlers. The Cyca kids spoke German at home, observed German customs + traditions. Basil + Maria Cyca attended the Roman Catholic church in Lemberg, and were very devout Catholics.
