My godfather, BRUNO GRYBAS of Chicago, told me that the name Grybas means "mushroom" in Lithuanian. His wife, my Aunt LORRAINE SCHMALTZ, collected mushroom figurines as a hobby. :)

Yes , my father Juozas Grybas from Vilinus ,Lithuania gave me the same meaning to our name .He said it was a small type of mushroom that grows in oak forrests and they used to
collect them.

Re: grybas surname

Was looking in the name grybas. My husbands grandmother was named Grybas. In fact her first name was Theodora. She was from Jokobaichai Luthuania. I believe it is a few miles from Jurbarkas. The well known artist Vincas Grybas lived and died there. I am looking for information on the name. Any help in this would be appreciated. Barb Kleiva
Note: I believe Theodora was also spelled Teodora.

Barb, I re-captioned your message so that researchers who don't bother to read the messages, just the captions, will be able to see it. Many people just skim the captions, and so maybe this will help attract more assistance.

Thank you Lisa for doing that. It's try people only look at the front caption and not the full message. If you have any information I would love to hear from them. Barb Kleiva
