Was your Kaylor from Germany?

German "Kaylors"? Think again. Following a discussion of the K�hler (with umlaut) and Koehler (oe=umlauted "o") spellings on the KOEHLER mail list, Paul Beauregard suggested checking the German telephone book http://www.teleauskunft.de/ for Kaylor and its various spellings. If the German ancestor's name is spelled Kaylor, it may likely be an Americanized version of K�hler/Koehler.

  • Kohler -   5,556 names
  • K�hler - 40,115 names
        (with umlauted "o")
  • Kailer -       174 names

  • Kayler -          3 names
  • Kaylor -          0 names
