Hrabczak/Hrapchak surname

Classification: Query
Surnames: Hrabczak/Hrapchak, Dutka and Kowal
My great-grandfather was Anton Hrabczak who immigrated with his wife Parinka Dutka and their first 6 children from Lanowce, Galicia to Canada in 1899. He settled in the Rosthern and Vonda area of Saskatchewan. There is a very big family in Canada who changed their last name to Hrapchak somewhere around the 1930's.

We are in the middle of compiling and writing a family history book and have been researching on the internet to find anything. We would love to find out Anton's parents names and if he had brothers and sisters.

Any info as well as history of the area they came would be great to add to the book. I do know that Lanowce, Galicia is now close to Borshchiv in the Ternopil Oblast of Ukraine. I have found the Hrabczak surname in Poland as well.
