Hi All,

John Christian Griwahn married in Cardiff in 1860.  Is Griwahn a Welsh name and how would it be pronounced?

Hi there,
I think not.It appears to be Germanic in origin and if you Google it a lot of German language sites come up.They mean nothing to me as I have no German whatsoever.
Best of luck in your research. :) :) :)
