If you go to stevenmorse.org and use the gold form, you can enter just the village of Kissarkad. There are 46 entries. Perhaps if you look at all the ship manifests you will get a clue to help you with this.

Horbok, Ukraine is in Zakarpattya Oblast, about 3 miles SW of Dorobratovo where my maternal grandfather Charles William BIDZILYA was born.

If Gyorgy SIMON (SYMYON) birthplace is Beregszasz (now Berehove) in Zakarpattya Oblast, Western Ukraine it is possible his ancestors are related to me.

It could be through Maternal Grandfather Charles William BIDZILYA (1892-1978) born in Dorobratovo, Zakarpattya Oblast about 15 miles NE of Berehove. Or my 2C1R Ivan Vasiljevich BIDZILYA (1947-2020) born in Ivashkovytsya, Zakarpattya Oblast about 30 miles NE of Berehove.

You need more information. Ancestry.com records show many Gyorgy SIMON males listed as passengers or as last relative in place of departure. Birth year of Gyorgy would be VERY helpful so age can be calculated to match the age given on passenger lists. I did not see SYMYON surname in records, only SIMON.
