About us

The Katz surname project seeks to find common heritage through sharing of information and DNA testing. Any variant spellings are welcome. As a Jewish surname, Katz is almost always a Hebrew abbreviation formed from the initials of the term Kohen Tzedek ("priest of justice"), indicating descent from Jewish priests (although not all Jewish Katzes are in fact descended from priests). Germans with the last name Katz may originate in the Rhine River region of Germany, where the Katz Castle is located. (source: Wikipedia)
