@ObradMileusnic ObradMileusnic Welcome to the group, so glad you are asking. We will see what can be found. Who is Thomas Lichwa to Rozalija? Have you done any research on Thomas Lichwa born in 1887 and who immigrated to America? I can take a look to see what I can find on him.
Is this the location where Rozalija Lichwa Folwarczny born 1888 was born?
Do you know where Rosalija and Stanko were married and what year? Perhaps their marriage record may tell us who her parents were. And, if Thomas Lichwa has any information here in the US, maybe we can discover who his parents were.
These are the records we have in the FamilySearch catalog. Please take a look at them, if only to familiarize yourself with what these kinds of records would look like.

@ObradMileusnic ObradMileusnic Do you mind taking a look at this link? I am still trying to get my bearings on where this is. I went to mapire.eu, and then entered in the location name you provided. I can't yet tell if there are multiple places with this name. Please have a look at the neighboring town names. You have to zoom out a bit, but you can see Sambor below it, which is what came up with the place name you provided for Rosalija. The place name on this map is Maximowice.

After some careful consideration, there are a few questions I have. I don't know what religion your grandmother Rosalija was. This is very important, was she Roman Catholic, Greek Catholic or Jewish? Knowing this will help determine where records might have been kept, which allows us to know where to look.
According to the town locator on Gesher Galicia, you can see where specific records were kept, As of right now, we wouldn't know which collection to pursue.
Here is the link for Gesher Galicia.

My grandfather Stanko Folwarczny was practicing Roman Catholic religion but I think Rosalia Lichwa was the same religion. Still think that they were more likely Greek Catholic before marriage according to some stories in family. When they moved to Sibinj Croatia that time were only a few Greek Catholic worshippers in village. They felt descriminated of local population and started to go to Roman Catholic Church so originally they were Greek Catholic.

This is all really good to know. FamilySearch catalog link I gave you, is for Greek Catholics. Please go through my responses and click on the different links. By clicking on the links, you will learn about areas that would fall into areas that you will be researching. You can become an expert in your own area, where your family comes from. I will get back to tomorrow on Rosalija's family member, I have school work, and I can't procrastinate anymore.
Please check the FS Catalog link, you may find what you are looking for.
