Thank you for saying this. I actually didn't know this, and I have been confuses by my great-grandmother's maiden name of Sniegowska, and why it had so many different spellings. It has even been changed to Snow and Snoe. I see these on my many DNA cousins. I still haven't been able to trace back from her. I don't have any birth records for my grandfather in Bremond Texas. So, I can't get anywhere in my maiden name of Walker. Many mysteries...very few DNA matches to the name Walker.

Hi I am Peruvian mestizo, US-born, who has been trying to do some genealogy on my own and finding some interesting names down the line. My maternal grandfather has a French last name that I was able to trace to Bordeaux. However, AncestryDNA and MyFamilyTreeDNA do not show “France”, though Basque comes up. On my paternal lineage, I was able to trace back a few generations and started to find a name Jose, that was also Josef, and Yosef, then Yusef. I know many conversos (converted Muslims) and crypto-Jewish Iberians were migrating from Catholic Spain. I was also able to make some links to a potential ancestry that matches with this migration pattern through Spanish Inquisition in the American Viceroyalty of Peru. Besides all that, I’m just curious what role religion played in my ancestry and confirmation of the Alhambra Decree (Expulsion) descendants (not just for Portuguese citizenship, though why not?) One last name also of interest is my maternal great-grandmother with the last name “Portugal”. It suggests a lot but also difficult to trace bc of maternal names not being recorded consistently. Of course I would also love to identify my Andean ancestors if even possible. I’ve ordered a Nebula test and studying some genetics at a university so hoping that will be helpful down the line also.

The french thing is interesting to me as my maiden name is french. We have trased back to about 1500 to the Nord area. The family eventually had to flee to Canterbury due to religious persecution.

In England, these immigrants formed their own church and married within that church. So all the mothers were French too but we cant tie them back to France so tons of dead ends.

I doubt the name Frank comes from a French Jewish Napoleonic soldier, but maybe Prussian, Polish, or German. Nachman Frank that was hung probably by Russians who were forcibly banning the culture of the local people, was born in Marijampole, so the surname Frank was in town prior to Napoleonic army. I doubt Heywusz was a soldier that "left" the army in the middle of the war, married, had kids, and settled along with his brother Abram. It is more likely Heywusz was a local born in Marijampole son of Chaim, enabling him to run a business handing it down to his son while the town was being attacked, invaded and changed to a Russian town along with surviving the Napoleonic war being part of Prussia.

So, I was trying to think of ways that the story about Havish Franks being from France could be true since him being a Napoleonic soldier doesn't quite line up with him having Jewish children... but I do know, at least within the religious communities I grew up in, the belief that "mother determines religion, father determines politics" held quite true. So, is it possible that Havish was indeed perhaps a French Catholic? A catholic church and monastery was built in the area in 1758. In my very quick and cursory google search, I can't seem to find where the monks came from but quite possibly they were Franco or Prussian... It would make sense geographically. And I don't know about then, but I do know when religious orders have relocated here in the US, it hasn't been uncommon for them to be followed by parishioners. (There's a cloister of nuns that's a closed order in upstate NY that relocated sometime in the 1900s from Quebec (for a more peaceful, rural existence) and there arrival also brought in a small enclave of French-Canadians to the area, most of whom who'd grown up going to mass at that chapel. So, is it possible that when the monks arrived... or when they opened a school in the early 1780s... parishioners followed?... either for a new start in life in general or with a zeal to help spread their religion? I do know Frank/Franks can be a shortened form of Frankenstein as someone else pointed out... but aren't the -stein surnames far more heavily associated with German ancestry vs Russian/Lithuanian/Polish ancestry?

Search for all sorts of variations, even ones that might not make exact sense. Sometime's records are transcribed badly and especially when OCR is used to read the writing. Even better is to use search wild cards if the database you are searching allows it. A search wild card is using * or ? in place of a letter to search for multiple spellings, so mil?s will search for milos, milas, milus, milis, milys, miles, milns, mills, etc.
