I have German-English dictionary:Maybe you can figure out what you are looking for with these meanings. Could always try to google it and see what comes up?

   Abstammen means to be descended.
   Abstammun means descent /deriviation

  Sur= can't find

Kunde = customer or news. Kund= announcement

Hello everybody out there is someone able to translate "Abstammungsurkunde"

Abstammung ... s ... urkunde

Abstammung ... descended from
s ... frequently used connection between two nouns
Urkunde ... document

means:
Document about the persons someone is descending from (or so)

The "sur" is not part of the "kunde." It should be thought of as Abstammungs, then urkunde. Meaning a record of birth or descent.
