Looking for relatives of my grandfather who came to the United States from this town.

Mihal Matwiejczak- changed to Michael Matwick
Born: 22 October 1895
Rakowicze (Poland/Russia)
Father was Frank Matwiejczak, I do not have a mothers name.
He left many siblings behind. Perhaps a brother John also came to the US.
Immigrated in April 1913 at 18 yrs of age
Story is that he came to visit an uncle, who subsequently died right before his arrival. Any research or direction is appreciated. I am his granddaughter.
