Well, yes my surname is, infact German. EIther Kru (withthe umlaute ..) or Krueger, Krieger, Kreuger, etc. Actually, the name means table waiter or inn keeper. a Krug is a pottery vesell that often held wine. Thus, a Kruger was someone who served wine, or had wine to serve. At least that's what a search of the heraldry records seem to indicate. My family was Prussian in origin. I just wanted to see to what Clan I could attach the Krueger name, thus "Farquharson."
