The cordial help from Poland:
Matthew Kasovich, Kasovic in Polish might be:
GGpa Maciej KASOWICZ or KASZOWICZ
=================================
Gpa Adam KASOWICZ or KASZOWICZ

(There are not "v" and generally "ich" in Polish names, the correct ones are "w" and "icz")
The Polish surname KASOWICZ/KASZOWICZ is cognominal in origin, derived from old Polish language, and word "kasz, kasza", the surname Kaszowicz is noted in Poland from 1437, here is the surname location, acc to best Polish etymologist Prof. K. Rymut, and his work based on the Polish census 1990, from www.herby.com.pl:

Your duty now is to locate any of your ancestor with for eg Ellis Island database:
http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/eidb/ellis.html
Typing KASOWICZ and/or KASZOWICZ you have few Poles going from GALICIA, the province of AUSTRIA-HUNGARY EMPIRE, now located partly in Poland. Try to find your Matthew or Adam, or their family/friends. Ellis Island (or Baltimore, etc.) could give you almost all about his/their exact place of birth and origin, thus, all family information may be located.

Hope this helps a bit in your invaluable search,
