There is just not a lot to start with on Michal Nykaza. The first time we hear of him is in the 1900 census. He is listed, along with his oldest child Aniela, as boarders in the home of Joseph Wojcik. The address is 33 Will Street, which is just a few houses up from the 44 Will Street listed in Aniela's ship records. Michal immigrated to America in 1897, although I haven't been able to find his records yet.
The next mention of Michal is the 1910 Census: The Mybeza family with 7 of the 10 children listed.
The last mention of Michal Nykaza alive, is in the 1920 census. He will pass away just a few weeks after this record was made. By this point, 1 child from the above census (Walter) has passed away, and the 4 oldest children have married (Frank married Katherine, the boarder listed above).
This is the Polish newspaper obituary below lists his wife, Anna and his sons, daughters and sons in law. Strangely, not one of his 3 (possibly 4) daughter in laws is mentioned.
