Question:

What country did the Cornelius family come from?

I am trying to track down my ancestry. Complete my family tree. Thank you.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Cornelius is primarily of Roman orientaion, however tracking this information may be hard for you because, Cornelius has been a traveling name. (Italy, Germany, Dutch, Sweden) But it is orginally a Roman name. You will find it all over the Europeans now, and here in American most Cornelius' are of French-Canadian descent.
