If anybody has -any- information on the European origins of "Wengrin," I would greatly appreciate your assistance. I have 1900 -1920 census records which indicate a country of origin as being "Austria-R[ussia?]," "Austria-Rum[ania?]," and "Carpathia-Russia," respectively. My first American ancestors were Nicholas Wengrin, his wife Lilly (a.k.a. Rose) and brother Wasil Wengrin. Our current family name, depending on which branch of the family you are speaking with, is either "Wingreen" or "Wengrin," but I suspect that "Wengrin" is closer to the European spelling, and there may be other variations as well. Thanx for your attention, Stephen Wingreen
