We have hundreds of names of persons with the last name Cyriac found in the course of various genealogical searches. Some, found while perusing the city directories in the Wisconsin Historical Society library relate to a specific area of the United States. Others, appearing in telephone books or, now in our new electronic age, on the Internet, relate to individuals still alive and deserving of their right to privacy. (At least until they create their own web sites, thereby authorizing us access to whatever personal information they volunteer to place thereon.)
Lastly, and most importantly, many names were found in the public records associated mostly with the births of Cyriac babies. The most obvious are the parents, but also helpful in making connections to other branches of the family are the god-parents. The latter often also had the last name Cyriac and could be presumed to have been siblings or first cousins of the parents. These god-parents are predominant among those listed on this page.

3References in letters from various family and other sources inside Germany found by Helmut Cyriacks back in the 1950s & 1960s during his genealogical quest.
4Various recroded surname reference found by Helmut Cyriacks and included in his letter to J. A. Ciriacks of 17.2.1974.
**Either Bruning or Hinrich could be the
father of our earliest Bremen
Area known ancestor, Hinrich Ciriacs, 1625 ~ 1695, who
was also a bauleute in Etelsen upon his marriage to Gesche,
1632 ~ 1702. In addition, assuming that the military
muster roll lists 'young' men, then the father of Hinrich Ziriacus, and possible grandfather of our earliest ancestor,
had to have been a bauleute, too. This means that the
family had moved into the Baden area just southeast of Bremen before the
end of the 16th century. [ Bauleute
translates as 'building people', possibly constructing the large, all in
one building farming structures designed for those with the resources to
afford them - the Baumanns. The genealogist researching for us back
in the early 1970s indicated that Baumann meant 'important farmer.'
The most recent translation of bauleute is 'builder' - one who constructs buildings.
That's in line with the 'conjectured' construction orientation of the
Cyriac Family going back to ancient
times in Rome! ]
