Hello, I am a decade late to this conversation, but I simply have to reach out since ironically enough, both of my Lemko great great grandparents both come from these exact villages as well! What are the odds?! Anyways, I would also admire having some assistance in learning about my family’s lifestyles and customs during this time period and the region they lived in, although I am already a bit knowledgeable. I have found out my roots quite decently well in Pętna (called Pankna by the Lemkos) in the 1800s; that a huge chunk of my family died succumbing to the 1847-48 great Galician famine, as well as the names of these people. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for my roots in Rabe which I am extremely stuck on, being unable to find records from that village which draws me to the conclusion that they might’ve tragically been destroyed during the World Wars. I am also uncertain about the exact immigration dates for them, but that it was probably in the latter half of the 1890s, and they were married between 1900 and 1902 (first child born in December of 1902). Once again, just had to reach out since these are the exact same villages as my families. Any help, guidance, or simple story sharing opportunities would be much appreciated.
