The Dragoonis family

[annpmd]

Did anyone know of the Dragoonis family from Glasgow?

I don't know if it was originally a Scottish name or where my family originated from.

Can't seem to  find any family history.

Thanks

Hi Ann
no entries in Census as I can find BUT 84 entries in the Scotland Ireland phone books 1800 =1884
Goodluck

Hi Ann

Can we take it a stage at a time perhaps? What info do you have on your Dragoonis family that you have been able to confirm to date?

Victoria Dragoonis

 Christening:

 Spouse:    George Vaznialis   
 A Marriage:

Agree, need to start with details of most recent deceased ancestors to sort this out.

My husband was George Dragoonis, since deceased, who came to Birmingham but his brothers Billy and Richard lived in Mayfield Road, Glasgow.  Richard came to England and married, since deceased,  but Billy stayed in Glasgow until he died. The parents were Sarah and William Dragoonis but we don't know how or when William came to Scotland,  the family tree is a mystery.  We do think that they may have originated from Lithuania but don't know much more.

As some of the replies state Russian this could be a link.


Thanks

The marriage is on Scotlandspeople but it can't be viewed online. If you order it you will get their parents names
