tradetrek: The origin of the name Kurtyan05/07/2005, 20:09:28
The name Kurtyan is extremely rare.
Yes, the name sounds Romanian but I also found two other Kurtyan surnames in Armenia and two others in Turkey, Silivri (former Armenian province).

My first thought was that the name Kurtyan is the magyarized form of Curtean but then I discovered the names Hagop Kurtyan and Johannes Kurtyan in Armenia.

I still have to do some more research.

By the way, do you know any good genealogy researchers in Romania?
