Help[Surname] Re: Vipers and it's numerous spellings?
in reply to a message by chris
Hi, Chris
Well from what I gather is that different languages have different spelling; like Maier, mayer, meyer, etc. Also when a foreiner and comes over to America and register, their surnames are usually american-ised, ex. Whittenmeyer / reg. as Whitmire (but it could probably be your choice to change it, I believe.) But overall, I'm not exactly sure. I hope it helps you, or at least gives your an idea.
