Family History Beginners Board / DANGERS surname
« on: Wednesday 24 June 15 10:27 BST (UK) »
Hi All,
my name is Ian Dangers and as you can see, not a usual surname.
I am looking for info dating back to approx. 1857 when the surname cannot be traced further back than this by myself. My bloodline goes back to Gustav Dangers who had a son Bodo Jean Dangers. the Surname does come up in the 12th Century in the House of Anjou and it is said that the family were part of French Royalty or connected to it and had to flee France during the French revolution when the name was allegedly changed from d'Angers to Dangers. Apparently d'Angers means from the town of Angers in the north west of France. Please can someone see if their is any more info available to the above people. Gustav Dangers's last area that he stayed in is Brezelenz in old Germany which is Bremen today. Thank you
