Is anyone tracing the family name SPANIER in Luzek Dolny, Galizien Kroenlande, Austria?

Hello Chris,
You would probably have more luck on jewishgen.org. Do a web search for Galicia SIG and you'll find the home page of Gesher Galicia SIG, the special interest group for Galician Jewish Genealogy.
Spanier was a common enough surname in Galicia and many other Jewish communities.

Hi Chris,
It looks like my great-grandfather was a Spanier from Luzek Dolny near Drohobycz.
Do you have any information about Spaniers from there?

Hi Wlodek
I have several Spanier's from Luzek Dolny.
Give me a list of names together with their date of birth etc and I will see if they appear in my tree.

Hi Chris,
My great-grandfather was Adolf Spanier born in Boryslaw on 17 June 1893, died on 16 June 1938. It looks like his parents moved from Luzek Dolny to Boryslaw.
Adolf’s father was Henryk/Heinrich/Henricus Spanier born in Luzek around 1862, and mother Teodozja/Theodosia/Feodosia Spanier nee Kosiorecka/Koszerecka born in Luzek around 1856
Henryk’s father was Jerzy/Georg/Georgius born in Luzek on 11 July 1830, and mother Anna Spanier nee Slawnyk/Slavnyk born in Luzek on 17 May 1832
Jerzy’s father was Adam Spanier, and mother was Apolonia Spanier nee Liski, born 16 September 1802.
In the tree there are also surnames Dukas and Kuciej.
BTW I was in Luzek Dolny last summer. There still lives a woman there whose maiden name was Spanier. But she’s the last…

Hi Wlodek
Gregorius Spanier (b. 11 July 1830) is my 1st cousin 4x removed. And his mother, Appolonia Liski (16 December 1802 to 28 January 1854) is my 3x great grandaunt.
So we are connected!
I don't have any information relating to Gregotius and Anna Spanier so it will be great to fill in the missing information.

My great-great grandmother was Elisabeth Spanier who married Konrad Schuster, came to Canada 1892 and spread out from there mostly to US and Canada. Her records, etc. were found in village Neudorf as well as Luzek Dolny. I hired a [professional researcher who found records for Luzek Dolny in the Przemysl Roman Catholic Archives. I feel if your Spanier was from Luzek, then there is a
good probability they are related. Can you give me your Spanier's name, birth and death info and
any any other info you have on them and try and find out how they are related.
