I did a search in the online directory cited in your earlier posting. There were 15 entries but one looked like a business, so I didn't include it.
rechecking the "place of origin" for Skibo on the ancestry website, I found there were three arrivals, two Hungarian and one unspecified. Perhaps this was your Austrian. Names Janos (two) and Ferencz (sic).
I am convinced that this surname is from Hungary.
