Interesting “Ámon” references
Certain occurrences of the name “Ámon” are listed here below.

  • Blasius Amon (or Ammon), was a composer in Tirol Austria, 1560-1590. He composed masses, motetts, and pieces for organ. His compositions were published by C. Huyigens (DTÖ 38/1 and StudMw, 1931). There is no certain information if he was an ancestor of our Ámon family.

  • Amon was the name of a principal God in Egypt.

  • Tut-Ankh-Amon was a pharaoh in Egypt. His treasures were found by Howard Carter in 1922 and represent significantly high value in respect of the antique Egyptian culture. The tomb which included those treasures was 3300 years old.

  •  In Vienna there are several pages of “Amon” in the phonebook. In Neusiedl am See there are also many Amons. There is a high probability of finding there close relatives. The first house in the village of Neusiedl am See, is a sweet (candy, chocolate) merchant “Amon Süssigkeit Grosshandlung”. There is a chance that this Amon belongs to our family.

  • The word "Amon Ra" in Thai language means "nice lady". I learned this on 1 January 2010, from my lady friend in Bangkok through the Skype.
