LIPAs in Poland

My great grandparents, Szymon Ludwika LIPA came to the US in 1881, arriving at the Port of Philadelphia. 6 years later they turned up in Detroit, MI and lived there until their deaths. I'm trying to find out what village in Poland they came from but the ship's manifest only lists "unknown". In later Census records they list their country of birth as Germany and Austria and their native language as Polish. I interpret this to mean they were probably from the Galicia area of Poland. If anyone knows of LIPAs from somewhere in Galicia, I sure would appreciate hearing from you! Thanks!
