Answer 1

Hey Iamdeyb,

Actually the name is older than that according to Swyrich.com see below for that. But on the other note, having the same surname, sorry not me. When people ask that question, in the Genealogy section - my assumption is that you want to discuss the surname with someone that shares your interest, so, I do a look up for places, and give it to you in the references below. Hope this is OK with you. At this GENFORUM you can look for existing information, and ask for information. If you spend enough time there, you will run into distant cousins!

Be careful, you might just pick up Genealogy as a lifelong hobby. (lol).
