Help[Facts] Re: I need the meaning of the name kelsey
in reply to a message by David Kiesey
I am related to the Kiesey family, and my great grandfather is one of the “13” children from William Kiesey. My grandmother would mention that the family originated in Ohio, and that the surname had changed from the original Giesey. I never knew why it changed. (Apparently it changed with William)
My side of the family always thought we were Irish. Any chance they said they were from Ireland to cover the German roots? And therefore the name change from Giesey to Kiesey? Anyone in Iowa know as that was where the Kiesey family name just popped up.
