Hello Edmund,
Thank you very much for your message!
I have found records of 60 Filuses coming to USA since 1897 on Ellis Island website: www.ellisisland.com
Our Filus family is looking for family members and we noticed that someone is looking for us in Brazil.
They found Ludwik Filus family, who was murdered by Ukrainian nationalists during the Second World War in 1939.
I was wondering why they were looking for this family in little village called UWSIE.
They are part of our family so we thought perhaps people looking for them are also part of our family.
We know that one of the brothers of our great great father migrated to Argentina from Galicia,Poland(Austraia-Hungary).
His name was Franciszek/Franek/Franco Filus.
We think he started the wine company on the border of Argentina and Chile.
The wine is called FILUS and their website is called www.filuswine.com
Perhaps the Filus families in Brazil are part of that family?
If you know anything else, please let us know.
Perhaps you know some people who know something.
Thanks,
