German surname De Lemos

[Mark Shippy]

I have a Great Grandfather, Adolph K. De Lemos who
immigrated to America from Germany in 1864. I don't
know where to start, but I would like to attempt to
trace his history in Germany, to learn about the De
Lemos name and family.
When he came to America he opened a music publishing
business and perhaps a music store, both in New Jersey.
I actually have some of the sheet music he published,
but I know very little about his life or history.
Anyone in this newsgroup have any ideas how I could
trace that history back to Germany?
Thanks in advance for any help or ideas......

Scroll down to where it says, "Find your Immigrant Ancestor."

Good luck with your search.

The name De Lemos is definitely not a german name.
Either your ancestor himself or his fore-fathers immigrated first into
Germany. It may be a Huegenotte name, though not typical, or originating
from a spanish speaking country.
There are 8 entries, 6 from that in Hamburg, in the telephone directory,
most having typical spanish christian names like Jose Maria or Miguel.

Thanks for that information. I don't know much about the family
history, but my ancestor came from Germany, and what little we know
so far, there was quite a few immigrants from Germany with the name
De Lemos. In one Internet search, I found a web page about a "Henriette
De Lemos" who it said was from a prominent Jewish family named De
Lemos, that lived in Berlin. Her father was supposedly a well known
physician in Berlin in the 18th Century.
Ellis island records list numerous German De Lemos names.
Maybe at some point this family immigrated to Germany from a Spanish
speaking country.

Hi Mark,

An Internet search for

Looks like there may be Sephardic Jewish connections.

In the telephone directory of Holland only one entry "De Lemos" in
Amsterdam.

Hello ,

I am not sure if your going to get this reply since this post was so long ago..My name is Renee Delemos. I am the daughter of Dante Delemos who was born in Dominican Republic and moved into the US at age 2. His father has pasted a while back which he did not really know and I recently found out that my father has 10 other half siblings that he has never met. I only know of one name Predo Freiz and I am trying to find some kind of history or information on the rest of them. If there is anything you can share that would be very much appreciated.

Thank you
