I'm thinking my family made a possible surname change. My last name is "Lyman" and I'm German, but I only find "Lyman" as an English surname.
Variations on the name could be:
Leyman, Leimann, Liemann, Lehmann
What I'm confused about is what the motive would be to Anglicize it around the early 1800s? (PS they lived in Wisconsin and they were Catholic if that means anything haha)
