Vanselous
This is possibly German, more likely Dutch. My grandmother would love to know the origins of this name. Can anyone help me?We're all in the gutter, but some of us look at the stars.

It is claimed here -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selous
that Selous is an anglicised form of the Dutch name Slous. However I can find no evidence of the existence of the names, Slous, Selous, Van Slous in the Netherlands. Sluis is a Dutch place name.
