Re: Felty surname
We don't respond to email addresses. Your surname Felty, however, is an americanized spelling of the South German Velte, from a short form of the personal name Valentin (see Valentine).

You are corect my ancestry and surname is of German origin. Nicholas Velte came from Germany to the United States in the 1700s and the name was americanized to "Felty"
