TITUS GENEALOGY-THE DUTCH LINE

Welcome visitor number to discovering your Dutch Roots!

Not all the Long Island TITUS families were of English descent as some folks would lead you to believe. If you've searched that English line to no avail, it could be that you're really DUTCH! There is much speculation as to why Titus Syrach DeVries changed the family surname to TITUS in the 1650's, but we may never really know why he did so. We do know that subsequent generations have all used the TITUS name, and that there are a LOT of us!

Our Titus-Dutch-L mailing list on Rootsweb has produced a large number of descendants of Titus Syrach DeVries and we bet there are more of us out there.

This site will soon house a multitude of information on the Titus line. Stay tuned!
