I'm looking for info on my original family name 'Syllwasschy'. Does anybody know its meaning or origin (from which country it originates)???
My ancestor lived in Dresden in c1888. He was a mercinary/surgeon/medical supplier in the Austro-Hungarian Navy at this time.
He married May Stanbrough (Anglo-Irish British) c1888. Had son, my g-grandfather.
He died c1890-93 or c1912 (I'm not sure which period) on Austrian Naval ship, which sank off Treste Port, Italy.
Does anybody have any info on this name?
Thanks,
