Means island in Irish. My Laun great grandparents were from Germany. They were farmers. There are several Laun families in Marinette County, Wisconsin. My family of Launs lived in Ozaukee County, Wisconsin. I was in a bookstore in Whitefish Bay, WI one day and found a huge book on the genealogy of Jesus Christ. Being curious, I searched the book for any surnames of all of my family. Laun was listed as one of them. The Laun surname is connected to King Arthur legend. I love my grandmother Lillian Mary Magdaline Laun with all my heart. T2 MT DNA Haplogroup. HVR-1: 16126C;16188T;16209C;16257T;16294T;16296T;16519C. HVR-2: 73g; 195C; 263G; 309C; 315C. Laun’s are also French more so than German as they lived on the French-German borders. My autosomal dna has been tested also! Family Tree: www.geni.com/share?t=6000000014587286263
