comments=Hello from Lanzarote

I came upon your website by chance todayand am very interested in finding out about the (de) Courtenay family. I have no idea of the origin of the name , apart from what is written on this site.

The "de" part of my name tends to indicate that we are of French origin, although I have no information about this, unfortunatly my mother suffers from Alzheimers disease so It is almost impossible for me to get any information from her.

Can you enlighten me on anything?'

Regards,
Andrew Douglas de Courtenay

comments= I am trying to research my father's Courtney line.

My father's name is Bruce Courtney, born 1929, in Maine.
He never knew his father, he supposedly died in a fire
while he was very young. His father's name was either
James or John Courtney, I can not remember, and he
would have been in his late teens or early twenties
when my father was born (assumption.)

My father's mother's maiden name was Springer.
My father also has not been able to get any information
regarding his "deceased" father. Any help would be
greatly appreciated. Thanks.
