I an looking for information on my grandfather, Nick Pilan, who was born in Austria-Hungary, Romania to Peter Pilan and Julia Unk (or Unc) on July 19, 1884. He traveled to America many times before settling down in Ohio with his wife, Florence Popa, from Romania. They later moved to Michigan.

Leandro,

I, too, wondered if there is a connection between the Pilans in your country and the Pilans from mine, but I have never been able to find any information to support this.

I even asked a cousin who is from Romania if she has heard of any connections, but she said she hadn't.

How long has your family lived in Brazil? Do you have any Romanian relatives?

You may want to look up addresses at http://www.whitepages.ro/ . This is a Romanian listing of phone numbers and addresses. I was able to find my cousin by writing to several of the Pilans on the list. Maybe you will have luck there too!
