Aaron,
I am curious if you know anything about your ancestors, there are very few Keyacks/Keyacks/&c. in the US. My family emigrated from “Russia-Poland.” Some relatives use alternate spellings like “Keijik” and the original papers have the name in Cyrillic and state the immigrants are citizens of Nicholas I (who ruled Poland from 1815-32).
