Looking for Lapes (Lopis, Lapis) Odessa/Ukraine 1880s #ukraine

Through the databases we have linked back to the USA and UK c. 1890. Lapis (via Yad-Vashem) seems to be spread throughout the Pale - but we don't have more definitive clues.
We have made some decent connections in the US post migration but no clear origins. David Lapes - London Lapes, Lapis, Lopis William Lopis - 1840 (UKR) Nathan Lapes - 1854 (UKR) Descendents - Pugatsky, Lerner, Susman

by family lore Abraham Sudack, my paternal great grandfather’s family name was originally Lepis (spelling uncertain) from Ukraine. He fled the Czar’s army in the early 20 th century and came to the US changing his name somewhere along the way. Settled in Fall River, MA. (Sudak is a town on the Black Sea coast of Crimea).

Oh - We have some odd hints. One is 'Sandeck Kaplin' against Rissie Lapis - Rosalia Lapes (https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/LB3B-8P8) in her death record. Also 'Risa Sundock'

Hi,
You can check the All Odessa Database on the Odessa Kehilalinks (kehilalinks.jewishgen.org/odessa).
There are several Lapes and Lapis.
Best,
Ariel Parkansky
