[Surname] Re: Meaning of Surname BREBURDA
Hello Betty,
Could you contact me @ osudy(AT)hotmail.com re BREBURDA?
My gt grandmother’s line from Kovarovice near Pysely overlaps with
the Breburda’s who still live around Pysely. Gt grandmother’s older
brothers (born 1850-1858) and a related family (yours?) left for the
US and were never heard of again. Breburda is derived from the name
of a mediaeval weapon like a lance - burdyr. The Breburda name
occurs among the Catholic Church listings for Pysely parish, Kovarovice
hamlet, okres Jilove around 1850-1880 alongside listings for my own
relatives.
Cheers Yvonne
