Kosloff (Chelm) or Kikela, or Matejko Biawe Biesko

My dad died last week and I was wondering if there might be family in Poland. His Dad's name was Kosloff, born in Chelm mother named Kikela, Mary; served in WW1, and came here in the 20's. He had one brother, died in NY. I can't find records of him coming to the US or Grandma either.

My married name is Matejko, anyone know history of Maria Matejko, Biesko' Biawa or something like that.

Matejko is a very well known name in Poland thanks to the XIX century painter, Jan Matejko. Kosloff looks like a transcription of a surname Kozłow or Kozłów (for me it sounds more Russian than Polish, but with the multi-cultural Poland before WWII, everything was possible). Kozłów would be (in Polish) rather a town/village name than a surname. Popular name derivated from Kozłów would be Kozłowski (quite popular in modern Poland).
