Help[Surname] Re: meaning of Vashner
in reply to a message by Jim Young
Following your suggestion, I tried to find out about a German surname WASCHNER. It obviously exists, I got almost 1500 hits for Waschner on sites from Germany.
My book of German surnames (Rosa und Volker Kohlheim, Familiennamen, Mannheim 2000) doesn't list it, but it has WAS(N)ER: Someone living on or by a "wasen", which is a piece of lawn.
