you. Hope you are finding what you need. Alice

Subject: [CASTOR] Rebecca Nuzan
Hello,
I have to make a presentation about the French ancestors that I have so
was
skimming around amongst my Kaesters and found surname NUZAN. Being
a
run-of-the-mill Paulus descendant, I knew someone would have knowledge
about
the heritage (or existence?) of Rebecca Nuzan. Upon presenting the
name
to
a general search engine (
dogpile.com), I came up with 'hits'
in and
unknown
eastern European language. Taking the name to MyDictionary.com's
foreign
language section, I found that the word 'nuzan' means 'urgent' in
Bosnian.
So, I guess NUZAN is not French! Did Rebecca come from Yugoslavia!?
Thanks, w.
