my family is from a city outside of rzeszow in southern Poland.However, you may be interested in the fact that there is more or less an entire town of Sidors near there... i'll try to find the name of it for you.also, when my great grandparents came over to America, they first took a train into Germany in order to board a boat there.oh, and the name "sidor" goes back to the 1500s when there were knights that fought in Hungary... the Sidor coat of arms is pretty cool too.i'm not sure how much you know about your family so far or about the name, but don't forget that from the 1790s to WWI Poland did not exist on a map.So many times people who think that they are Austrian are, in fact, Polish.The twisted history of maps :)Good Luck.Oh, and my great grandfather was a middle child of 10, and died in the 1954 at the age of 58.If this time period or amount of children rings a bell, please tell me.
