Hi Peggy.
Would you happen to know Harry's 2 brothers names?I really didn't know that there we so many Zallas's out there till I did a search in telephone directories.And what is also something that I didn't know is that the last name Zallas has some spanish orgin, which I am not, and neither is anyone in my family that I know of.I did not know my dad's side of the family due to my parent's divorce when I was very young, and my mother moving us out of state.
But I also believe there is a possibility that there may be more than one clan of Zallas, who are not related.I think that may be the case so far, I hope I'm wrong though.it would be so nice to finally meet someone from my dad's side.
I have heard from my dad that there is some Polish background..and I've heard some Russian too, but I must say, being Ukranian is the first I've heard.My dad also told me that the last name Zallas was once much longer, and ended in ski or something to that effect.I know my grandfather, Carl had at least one brother named Leo.I'm almost sure that there is another named Michael, not aware of Harry though.What part of the US did your Zallas clan come from?Mine are mostly Illinois, and northern Indiana.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,
Nancy
