The family name I'm following in the States is SIPRESS. In our family it arrived in 1880 from Frankurt am Oder, (which is now in Brandenberg, Germany) with KARL LUDWIG ZIPRSZ, his wife WILHELMINA PODROWSKI and their 5 kids.
He claimed to have been born in Prussia and renounced allegiance to the Emperor of Germany.
There are many names that came out similar to this when the people "americanized" them: CYPRYS, CiPress, CYPRESS, ZIPRESS, ZIPRIS, ZYPRESS, SYPRESS, TSIPRIS, to mention a few.
Do you know where your name came from? Or, do you know of other families who came here with the same, or similar, names?
Will be anxious to hear from you

Re: Zipris family connection
Hi Darren,
I found your email from a search I did on the web. I'm Dario Zipris and I'm looking for another Zipris that I might have any family connection.
I'm leaving in Israel for the last 20 years. I arrived from Argentina but as far as I know my ancestors are from Kiev.
Let me know some details about you if you want that we can be in touch,
All the best
