Surnames: Neazer, Neiser
Actually My Neazer is from the Carribbean. I have book called Slave trade by Hugh Thomas Which bsically made reference to a Neizer family that heavly enaged in the slave trade. Thses Neizers worked for the dutch West India Company in Elmina which is present day Ghana.The Book mention Jan Niezer whose father was a German Surgeon named Johann Michael Niezer. Anyway Jan Niezer ended up Marrying a African woman and his family acutally were very wealthy slavetraders. Since most of the slaves from where I am
came from were from Elmina I wonder if that lineage of Niezers is realted to my my family somehow?
