This surname does not appear on the Latvian Web. It is also absent from the 2001/2002 Riiga Telephone Directory. The directory covers Riiga, Rigas Rajons/Riigas District and Juurmala.
This surname might have the potential to be a Latvian surname. If so, it would be a rare Latvian surname. But without further information, it is difficult to say. Why do you feel it might be Latvian? What are the names of the earliest users of this surname? What is the relationship of the DELANTS individuals found on http://www.google.com/http://www.google.com/ and http://www.alltheweb.com/http://www.alltheweb.com/ to your DELANTS?
It is possible that the pre-1920 spelling of DELANTS could have been DELANT.
