Surnames Dagilovas and Dersia
I noticed in some of the postings on this board the mention of Daugai in Alytaus. My mother's cousin, Ludwika Wasilauskas, was born in Daugai in 1903. Ludwika's mother, Mikalina Dersia, was the wife of my grandfather's brother, Antoni Wasilauskas. I believe Mikalina was also from Daugai, and Antoni was from Rodomisle in Prienu, not far from Daugai. On Antoni's death certificate, his mother's name is recorded as Tekla Dagilovas. Is anyone familiar with the surnames Dersia and Dagilovas from that area of Lithuania?
