Cirieco Family Genealogy Forum
  
The http://cyriac-fhp.com Cyriac Family History Project has been working on our 2,000 year old family surname for the past 30 years. It's evident that the name was most popular in ancient times in the area of Rome and other parts of the far flung Roman Empire. Early individuals were Greeks named Cyriaca (female) and Cyriacus (male)
of the 3rd and 4th centuries in Rome.
It's apparent that Ciriaco, a very popular modern Italian spelling (relatively speaking) is probably the origin of Cirieco, but we know of no Cirieco surnamed individuals out there. Anyone care to step forward here.
