[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Researching Beyond the Family Tree

[Michael & Maureen McHenry]

I'm aware of the variants. Not too long ago I was going through the Lipno
parish confirmation records and came across almost all the variants you
mention. There was no evidence of relationship. Interestingly each variant
seemed to be associated with a different village. If I was to spend the
money for testing I would like to know there was at least one other MANZEI
descendant.

Hello Mike,


> a rarer surname such as my grandmothers MANZEI there are none.

please be aware, that the surname MANZEI is just one variant of the big

MANZEY, MANTHEY, MANTEY, MANTY, MANTIC, MANTIK 

family. You will find hundreds of them at least in the IGI.

All the best,

Reiner
