Hello. I just joined this group and was wondering if anyone can point me to a good source for tracing yhe roots of my family name. Of course the normal accents (upside down circumflex )were removed from the first letter and the z.
Thanks for any tips.

Hello! Your name is most definitely of Lithuanian origin, ĺalthough, as a Latvian-American, it's very hard for me to read and understand! I found dozens of references to Šliuzas just by Google Searching. The Lithuanian lang. 'Vikipedija' has an
article on the name, as well. Google Translate will instantly translate from Lithuanian to English. Good Luck!
