Definite No on the Book By jrachelle Not so good. The format is difficult to navigate. The first section consists of paragraphs describing occupations and how names were formed. Informative. Following each paragraph is a number that you'd

6 think would correspond to the numbered names in the second section. They don't. The lists of names in the second section gives a reference number, or two, or three, for each name. Track those back to the paragraphs, they don't correspond. Track the name numbers to the other numbered names, and get more reference numbers. The author makes no clear connection, it's your best guess. Recommend spending your money on something a bit more definitive. The first section is good reference and worth picking up for a couple dollars. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Entertaining and interesting explanation of German names and surnames By Joan L. Redd I'm a 6th generation, 100% ancestry German American (both sides of my family) who lives in a region heavily populated with German surnames and Christian names. I found this book by chance in our local library and wow! It opened up the origins of my family names and also made sense of the names of other persons I've known and seen throughout the region all my life. There were surprising revelations to me, such as names that I never thought of as being of German origin or surnames taken from Latin, pre- Germanic/Celtic words and place names, and other languages. This book was fun just to skip through, but the introduction is worth reading if one has more time. I highly recommend this book if you are interested in your roots or just enjoy knowing where names come from and what they mean. 6 of 8 people found the following review helpful. What Was The Origin Of My Name? By A Grey Haired Hacker Like everyone else, I fantasized that my distant ancestors were noble lords, wise sages, shrewd merchants and so on. However, I have found that while all of the other German surnamed families with familial links to my German surnamed family have some form of an acknowledged coat of arms, my German surname apparently does not. Apparently, my ancestors were the cooks and chefs that kept everyone else well-fed. Oh well, back to putting the icing on the cake... See all 10 customer reviews...
