ArchivesRe: Names at work
in reply to a message by Russell
I do a lot of genealogy, and am interested in it from all over the world.
Mainly names from other countries and titles of royalty of other contries.
Even though I thought it had to do with titles of royalty from the middle east, I couldn't find a connection concerning Royalty.
But on the internet, using the name KANWAR, their are listings for the last name KANWAR.
The name is in India. Amoung them is a professor. A film director in the provence of Punjab.
So I would say that any chance of finding an answer would be in that area of the world.
Shalom and good luck.

That helped, Roy!
I used the info you'd found on "Kanwar" being Indian, and you were spot-on. It's a Sanskrit name, and it does mean "prince". It's also spelled "Kanvar".

YAAAAAAYYYYY! (picture a cheerleader jumping up and down as the winning goal is scored)
You seem to be a great addition to the regulars on the BtN site. Even though I have quite a number of resources at my beck-and-call (I'm a college student), I didn't think of trying the direction you led us.
I hope you visit often and for quite a long time.
