Notes - Hi Lauren
I would not always believe what you read in obituaries as they are often inaccurate. According to the various censuses Philip was born in Austria or Prussia. There are virtually no records for a LUCAS family in Krakow and the records go back to the 1700s. Either Philip was not from Krakow or the name was not originally LUCAS and he changed it…. His name was certainly not Philip back in Europe.
I am afraid without more information it will almost impossible to trace him further back. I see there is an index card to a naturalization – can you try to obtain the Naturalization papers?
Regards
Michael
