Hi Rena and Wilfried,
Thank you for that info......all info helps us to build a picture of
the past.
So does this mean the name Andree, Andreas, Andros etc originated in
Greece and then as people travelled to far off lands they changed
their names to suit the country they settled in, which has happened
many times over the years and often happens even now ?
I have found on some "name meaning" sites that the Scottish verson of
Anderson,Andrew and Andree and even Andrews means son of Andrew , so
a bit different from our German Andree whose name simply means "a
man".
It is always interesting how people actually had their surnames
bestowed upon them.
