[Surname] Ziert
Ziert was a family name, but it was changed, i have no living relatives on that side of my family to explain the origin, or meaning behind the name. Family records through Ellis Island say the last place of residence was Wolynien, Russia in 1907.
I haven't been able to find the name anywhere, and I am unsure of the origin because I have been told it was German by family members before. The first names of the men who went through Ellis Island were Emil and Gustav-- if that helps at all. Someone please let me know any information you have, including similar sounding names. thank you.
