I have collected some of the information that have my surname in their names.

I have found the main geographic locations for the surname, but they will be supplemented over time. The next step, should go to the name of the tribe from which came my Kin. This name is sought by systematizing all information, by moving ancestors in the found geographical objects.

Before moving on to this step, it is necessary to collect all information on the found objects: the history of origin, heraldry, legends, myths. In general, all references to the names of rulers, significant events, dates of coat of arms changes and other available data.
