as far as nationality...this is what i'm told ,he passed many years ago when i was 8yrs.....he is mostly indian and irish. his full name was arzanas bradley. this named was passed down for several generations.
i come from a big family and the stories are just as big, so here it goes. if i'm wrong i was misinformed and not trying to mislead, i'm not much of a history fan.....as was told that some irish brothers were in prison in ireland. the prison was over crowded and as an agreement several inmates where aloud to leave for america if they did not return.
these brothers all married indian women and began passing down this name. thier children and their childrens children became active in the armed forces. this is what my fathers family pride themselves on and most of the arzanas names i've seen on the internet are armed forces assc. i can't think of any other info. i would someday like to name a son arzanas, but would like to know more about it. thanks for any help you can provide!
