Elizabeth: Your reference to the family coming from Austria/Poland caught my eye. Our family name is Sykos, but with transliterations it could be anything close. The 1920 census listed the family as Sackis and was found through the "Soundex" system. Our family came from the Ukraine, a town with a name something like, Sohovisco or Sohoveho, but with geo-political changes in this area it may have been in Austria then. Does any of this ring a bell that is worth pursuing? Best regards
