According to the information on the ship's manifest, my husband's great great grandfather was Tomasz Kapron living in Turobin in 1912. This surname seems to be quite uncommon. Does anyone have the name "Kapron" in the family tree, or know the meaning or origin of the name? Regards, Virginia

****I knew of some Caprons in my hometown, Springville NY. Try the alternate spelling, just in case. /cfg At 08:11 PM 7/3/2008, you wrote: >According to the information on the ship's manifest, my husband's >great great grandfather was Tomasz Kapron living in Turobin in >1912.
