Re: HIRZ FROM GERMANY

Hi Susan,

Thank you for your email.I have seen more of the spelling of Herz than I have of Hirz.My husband's Hirz surname came from the Rimhorn, Germany area near Darmstadt.The Hirz were in that area since the 1700's. I do not know if it is the original spelling or if it is a derivative of another surname.We pronounce the name as "hers".As far as I know none were in Hungary, but perhaps the name originated there. Wish I could be of help to you.Good luck to you in your research.
