The Jaffin Family Page

The Jaffin family has origins in Latvia on my father's side of which little is known.On my mother's side, she has traced her origins to the Hall's and the signing of the Declaration of Independence.Her side also has Merriman who founded Wallingford Ct., and Reiff, her mother's maiden name, from Triest, Germany.Jaffin was a taken name when my father's side came over to this country, although there are many Jaffin's out there, who are in no way related, including ones with the same first and middle name! I am very interested in finding my father's roots as he was 56 when I was born, and died when I was only 14 years old.It has been a challenge, and I only know the original name was something like Pereitz, although I can't attest to the spelling.
