Hi,
My name is Rares Pivniceru, I'm from Romania. I was trying to discover some about my family ancest tree and, poking around, I found this "pivnick" name which seems to be pretty near.
In Romanian language, "pivniceru" means "the man who takes charge of the hospodar's cellars", "the cellarman" or something like that... As it has such a strong and rich meaning in Romanian, I think it must be originated here. "Pivniceru", however, is a very rare name. I know there are just a few families wearing this name.
Does anybody know for sure his/her roots are somewhere around Romania?
Thank you.

Regards,
Rares.

Where in Romania do you live? My Pivnick family has roots in the Ukraine near Vinnitsa in the early 1900s. Please contact me at lpivnick@memphis.edu Larry Pivnick
