Hi Trofa,
Have you ever considered joinging a DNA study? There are about 1500
genealogy-related DNA surname studies going on right now in the world. You can find
out if your mom and dad's names are being studied by going to
www.worldfamilies.net.
The DNA uses junk-DNA, so you don't have to worry about medical purposes,
etc. The test involves swiping the inside of your mouth with a cotton swab. To
find out more, go to www.relativegenetics.com or www.familytreedna.com. Both
companies have tutorials on their sites.
Good luck!
