The Ziogas surname originated from Polish ‘Szogs’, particularly from the region of Mazury in Poland. Lithuanian cognates: Ziogelis, Ziogis, Ziogys, and Ziogunas, [Vanagas, op. cit., 1989]. There were 83 Ziogas families living in Lithuanian in 1989." Charles J. emaitis, zemaitis@fgi.net Decatur, IL.
