[masraum]

I've got a super unusual name, but it's next to impossible to find anywhere.

If you do a search at either "ancestry.com" or "genealogy.com" for "masraum" you find my family or my fathers half siblings or a few ancestors.

I called one of the half "uncles" that I've never known to see if they knew anything (they grew up in the area with my ggrandfather). I did find that I have a few more relatives named "masrum". But through basic internet searches the trail goes pretty cold. One of these days I'm going to try to figure out what our surname was in Europe. My family on my dad's side is from Germany, but the last name points possibly to a French surname. There was an area of Germany that was French at some point, so I suspect that maybe that's what's going on. I just haven't ever taken the time or money to pursue it further.
