Hi Does anyone know the origin of the name Dworanowski? I have heard many stories. First, I was told that it was shortened to Dworan when my grandparents came to Canada from Austria around 1911. Then I heard that it was mispelled and it was orginally Dvoran. I am confused because if it was shorted from Dworanowski to Dworan, then why are there Dworan's in Austria and United States? When I search Dworanowski nothing comes up. This would really help me out a lot.
Thank you
