ANPRODOMINOFSKY help please

[anne77]

Hi, Does anyone know how the name ANPRODOMINOFSKY might translate to ANDERSON and what might be the real spelling!  I am researching a Charles Walter Anderson born Berlin abt 1838 died 1907 Warwickshire and have found that his real name was Carolius August Anprodminofsky.  Any ideas??

There's that spelling in the Gazette  http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/23510/pages/3642/page.pdf

And this one in son Newland Augustus's birth registration in Derby in 1869:

 Augustus N DeAnphrodominofsky

Brilliant, how quickly you found Newlands birth registration - I have been looking for ages!  Interesting you have found another spelling for Anprodominofsky.  Thank you Anne

And another spelling: marriage in Solihull in 1868:

Charles A F A Auprodominosky

Wow - how do you do it!  Can you find any in Staffordshire which is where my Charles Walter Anderson b. 1850 came from?

There's a marriage announcement in the Birmingham Journal of 12 December 1868:

On 2nd Inst at Hall Green.....Carolius Fridercus Augustus De Anfrodominofsky, manufacturer of this town, eldest son of Carolius De Anfrodominofsky, of St Petersburg, and Elizabeth Richardson, second daughter of Mr William Richardson of Hillfield Farm, Solihull,  and of Hall Green, Yardley, Worcestershire

That's amazing so much detail.  Thanks
