De Musis
De Musis
I recently found out that my GGM's maiden name was De Musis, she lived in Taurasi, near Avellino. This doesn't look or sound very Italian to me ... I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on the origins or linguistics of the name? Thanks!!

Re: De Musis
The surname is not listed in the Dictionary of Italian surnames and it is considered to be either local in origin or imported from abroad. here are about 8 towns in Italy having inhabitants bearing that surname. =Peter=

I don't know about this name specifically, but I have cousins who have researched Torre le Nocelle and Taurasi.
