Looking for these families. Supposedly Maksian is true surname and was changed to Goomishian at US entry, which was Rhode Island (also supposedly). Goomishian lived in NYC. Also relatives in Arizona. Any info would be helpful, as the family wants to know what real last name is. Thank you.

This information is not correct-As best we now know, the Maskians were simply close friends who were know since the days before coming to America. The only other name for sure that can be linked to us is Dalerian, which is the name of my fraternal grandmother's(Marinos)father. Relative(Charlie) who came prior to Hovannes(John) Goomishian, already carried the name Goomishian. There is no other connection to Maskian known.

we have (the Goomishian family) been contacted by George Maskian (August, 2014) We will try to find out if there is any blood relation between the Maskians and the Goomishians
